We went a couple of weeks ago; the plant is huge and there’s a lot to see and you’ll get ferried about in a 147” wheelbase, 7 door, TD5 Defender.

I saw a few facelifted FF’s, one of them undisguised, so look out for those Thumbs Up

Enjoy Very Happy

Sound brilliant.
If you report back positive I will have to start dropping hints for next years birthday. Sadly it won't be my 50th. Nearly time for me to re-apply for my driving licence....70 is not old, just a number. !!!

I really enjoyed my tour, although at that time the Defender line was still going, and in some ways that was the most interesting bit, as they were largely hand assembled, whereas the RR/Disco line had lots of robots. The guides were very pleasant and knowledgeable and happy to answer questions. I didn't do the off road driving bit, but one can, I think, make a day of it by doing that in the morning and the tour in the afternoon. Only Range Rovers since 1988

Went earlier this year for the factory tour, had a great time, they talk to you about the history, lots to see and you may see school children having their tours, watch out for the parts delivery vehicles! and stay on the paths marked clearly!

The best bit of the tour for me was seeing all the vehicles just leaving the production line when you get to see so many different colours and option combinations, you will see some cars being pulled for quality control checks!

If you have the chance for off roading, grab it with both hands ..... the steering wheel, take a go - pro, so you will remember the off-road experience.

Have a great time and let us know how you get on Thumbs Up
