British Leyland: Chronical of a Car Crash

There’s book that Seth recommended and I found it quite interesting. Although the title may suggest a MVA or a 10-50 (don’t you just love acronyms and professional jargon?) it is about the collapse of British Leyland. “The focus is on the vehicles produced by the company, but the story refers to the political and economic context of Britain in the seventies asking: ‘Could this have been avoided?’” Maybe it wasn’t completely Triumph’s fault.
