All between 1930 to 1939. Rover had a quite a few models like the 10, 12 and 14. 14hp Pilot and quite a few coupes Rover 14 Hastings.
Indeed and there are many more but looking at your list only two remain. Again one of them Vauxhall is not wholly UK owned. MG went bust and now is Chinese, Aston Martin have have more than one owner over the years so it too has suffered in its time.

No longer a 75 owner as my tourer made it to the moon, and died on it's way back. But 1/4 million miles ain't bad.
