Xenophobia rears its ugly head again!
I am surprised that you didn't ask what is our list of the best British bikes of all time. Or should that read 'of times past'.
For the record,according to the Oxford Dictionary, Britain is the proper name for the whole island containing England,Wales and Scotland.
So our Irish friends as well as us colonials would not rate a mention in the list.
As a side issue for Helen I notice that Scotland is sometimes refered to as North Britain for postal purposes!!
