    Ron,
    I've been in the UK for nearly 4 weeks for work and I was hoping to get on a factory tour/experience day except they were only on during the week when I unfortunately have to work.....
    Go figure my company send me over here business class, put me up in a fancy hotel in Mayfair and then they expect me to work.....
    Hope you manage to go so you can tell me what I've missed out on!
    Marty

    Only seen one so far Ron. They have a pretty cool Landrover Discovery add on the TV here.
    I have been driving around in a Jeep Wrangler soft top. Pretty hard to get used to driving from the passanger seat at first.
    Oh well, back to doing nothing.
    Cheers, Craig

    190 of the Pounds Sterling stuff. You do get a couple cups of tea and a lunch for this. And this is the Gold Tour which covers the full day. I suspect the Bronze and Silver tours, which cover and do less, are cheaper.

    I just fronted up to the factory back in 1991 hoping to find out about tours only to discover that I was a day too late / six days too early. I had to settle for a photo outside the gates, but it was still worth it!
