Yes, it was a good day out, I was very much in my comfort zone Thumbs Up
I'd be up for another visit, either Halewood or Gaydon although somehow I don't think we'd get passed the main gate at Gaydon unless my old pass still works Whistle

Land Rover Halewood Plant

Before Mr Pinks makes the point, I must apologise - it is of course Halewood, not Hailwood!
The visit took 2.5 hours - half an hour PR talk about the success of Landrover and 2 hours around the plant. There are some things you will not see, such as the Paint Shop and the engine assembly plant.There is sufficient to get an indication of the vibrancy of the production and the sense of whole world market.
It is well worth a visit.
