It required a French, yes French, car-making giant to relieve a traditional name indented into the hearts of British industry from their agony. The name, Vauxhall, will disappear like many of it's past colleagues; Morris, Austin, among others who failed to conquer the spider web of Union strangulation way back when.
Of course there is no British Vauxhall actually because like all major car-producing companies in the UK, they are all owned by foreign companies, a well known fact ignored by deluded Brits who still believe British is best! Peugeot will hopefully remove the name once and for all, replace it with their own brand and let the name Vauxhall become what it is; a jurassic scrap-heap.
Opel, yet another GM jurassic monster will also vanish from the planet as the French giants coin a majority of the car-making industry in Europe. GM, the US owners are bowing to their new government's guide lines; America will become great once again and their car companies really do not need European built tin cans flooding their highways, especially if they are scrap, and offer the US citizen a non-US dream of petrol saving squeeze-boxes compared to their petrol guzzling giants that notoriously rule the US highways!
Qui, qui, the French will say after hammering yet another nail in the coffin of "British is Best!" In fact a, stinking middle finger directed towards Mrs May is maybe a sign of the future for Brexit Brits. Hopefully, they can resurrect the fab Austin Seven, because BMW, Mercedes, VW, Fiat, Renault, among others, will soon be banging their nails into the coffin too!
Aurevoir et Aufwiedersehen...
