Originally posted by Yorkie62 View PostI don't think the article actually said all Ford factories in the UK. I strongly suspect that the Diesel Engine plant in Dagenham will goo, but not because of Brexit. The RnD Facility in Dagenham will probably stay unless Ford is thinking of pulling out of all Motorsport. which just leaves the Petrol Engine plant at Bridgend. Ford will have to balance the cost of exporting the engines to the car production plant in Germany and then reimporting 1 in 3 back to the UK against moving the petrol engine production to another facility where the tariffs are more favourable.
Another participant on the private call with May said that other companies delivered the same warning as Ford, The Times reported.
One thing you can't relocate are farms.

VW continues to manufacture diesel cars
Diesel will see a renaissance in the not-too-distant future because people who drove diesels will realize that it was a very comfortable drive concept," said Matthias Mueller, Volkswagen's newest CEO
I can see this will be the "mantra" when car manufacturing shuts down in the UK, that is it's simply due to the lack of demand for diesels, however diesels will be imported like there is no tomorrow.
