The very same company that sub-contracted the assembly of our Austin 
Healey cars, less drive train, also assembled the early Volvo P1800s  so 
there is a lot of British in them there Volvos.
After despatching the Healeys on the back of a truck they arrived at the 
MG assembly line (Abingdon)  for their motors,g'boxes and diffs plus I 
think wheels
