I knew I bought Jaguars for a reason.

It’s really cheering to see Richard Wilson’s piece on the benefit the UK electronics industry should see from Jaguar Land Rover’s welcome investment in Solihull.

The Midlands quite literally ‘made’ those excellent brands and it will be great to see two things as a result. Firstly, the shot in the arm it will give the education system to meet the need for graduate talent locally. And secondly, a tangible incentive for those ‘undecided’ students struggling with GCSE choices to choose solid engineering disciplines, including electronics, as their ultimate goal. Because great cars, especially ones built from aluminium, are cool right?

Sincerely, A Petrol-head
