It doesn't surprise me that BMW are twitchy about this. For all their success, BMW live in perpetual fear of failure and falling behind. (That's a fascinating thread all on its own).
But this is good news for the UK and a deserved vote of confidence in the Sunderland plant after years and years of success. God bless 'em, my last car was built by the lads & lasses of the North-East and I wish that I'd never god rid of it. Utterly reliable, and ticked all the boxes for me.
The only cloud for me is Nissan's association with Renault.
