Mid 80's a subsidiary of Lucas very large factory and car park, had a policy that anyone turning up to do business with them driving a foreign car could not park in the factory grounds.
One of the Japanese car Companies was in negotiation for supplies of parts for a large contract.
They naturally turned up in their own motor vehicles, with no uncertain words the guy on the gate told them where they could go with their foreign imports, they did, straight back to their own plant to find someone they could actually work with.
The Japanese plant is still going the large factory is now closed!
