FORD = Fix Or Repair Daily; Found On the Road Dead
Many of the British and European auto manufacturers weren’t much better, e.g. FIAT = Fix It Again Tony

Yes, and I drove GM cars prior to my only Ford experience and can say GM was not much better. Been more than happy with my Korean cars since 1989 when I unloaded the Ford.FORD = Fix Or Repair Daily; Found On the Road Dead

I gave up on North American cars following my distressing experience with a Buick and a Ford station wagon in the early 1980’s. Since then I’ve found Toyotas to be near bulletproof: Camry went 13 years, Lexus RX 300 and IS 300 still going strong after 17 years and 14 years, respectively, Canadian winters notwithstanding.

Sure. Joseph Lucas, AkA "The Prince of Darkness"; AkA "Lucas Electronics". Why the English drink warm beer.

Translated to the Queens English, Vauxhall Motors. Or if you want to use a British curse word, British Leyland.

The best car I've ever owned was a Kia Sorrento. Perfect in every way.

You're probably too young to know that American Motors were the manufacturers of the worst car in America: Rambler.FORD = Fix Or Repair Daily; Found On the Road Dead

In the early 1970s we had a mix of Ford, Chev and Rambler police cruisers all V8s. I will say that the Chevs and Ramblers did not carbon up like the Fords from idling time. OTH the Ramblers handled like crap on wash board road surfaces.

Not too young, but I hadn’t arrived in North America.

Well, update. After lots of research and still no response from Trumper I've concluded that the brush in question had to be New Old Stock when I bought it since the measurments and descriptions mach some older Vulfix brushes but none of the modern Trumper brushes.
But other than Kent and Vulfix/Simpson, who makes shaving brushes in the UK?
