I've seen quite a few civics in my local dealers, and to be honest, I havn't found one that was perfect, in terms of trim and finish! yet I still ordered one......
I don't think that the British worker has any lesser desire to do a good job than anyone else in the world.. there are regional differences though :
In Japan and the USA it is common for the component suppliers to build their factories next to the car plant, so quality assurance bosses can keep a tighter reign. Also, with suppliers being on the same site, more long-term commitment and mutual understanding develops.
In the UK we have a very poor exchange rate at the present, so building cars has to be as efficient as possible to make a profit, speeding up the production line without increasing the workforce for instance, and sub-contracting out inefficient processes and parts.
