Well, actually I don't think they build any Honda in the UK. Assembling them is a better word, imo. The civic is designed and developed in Japan, as far as I know. All they has done is to build a factory in Europe for better to be able to compete on equal terms with their European rivals.
In the end, everything is supervised by the bosses at the HQ in Japan.
This is all old news, most Japanese carmakers move their production line to Europe or elsewhere in the world, like for instance Nissan. (Sunderland UK)
This of course (and unfortunately) due to the constant industrial globalization process.
