Civics have been made in Canada since late 80s or early 90s. Also I believe the new FK8 Type R engine is assembled in Canada then shipped to the UK for installation.

the motor is built in Ohio alongside the NSX, but the fully assembly is, you're correct, in Swindon, UK

i wanted to tour their plant in Suzuka Japan but the most exciting stuff built there nowadays is probably the Fit
