Which cars and vans are manufactured in the UK?

To help provide jobs in the UK and reduce the UK’s negative balance of payment problem we always, as far as possible, buy UK made products. Both our present vehicles are UK-made and our next car (Honda CR-V when the new one comes out) will also be. How about publishing a list of all cars and vans manufactured in the UK with a supplementary list showing UK manufactured engines?
