Some welcome news in these times of economic gloom, and hopefully a sign that we are nearing its end, is the fact that Spyker - Dutch manufacturer of some truly spiffing sports cars, with perhaps the most extraordinarily-designed and detailed cockpits of any production car - is to relocate its production line from Holland to Coventry. Although nowhere near the league of the existing UK-based manufacturers, this will at least mean a few extra jobs should be created and business will hopefully continue to improve for the British suppliers who are linked to Spyker. A jolly well done and the best of luck!
