No Mike, with an English wife and as a result a quantity of assorted English outlaws I figure there is enough British content in my life already.
Seriously though, I have never liked British machinery. In earlier times I worked on Vickers Viscounts operated by TAA who also had American aircraft such as Douglas DC3, DC4, DC6, DC9, Boeing 727 and Lockheed Electras. The difference in ease of maintenance of the American aircraft was an order of magnitude. I saw the same thing with vehicles from the two countries though maybe not as dramatic.
