Factory Tour Today: Anyone's car in production?

[240]

I'm in London for work, so booked the factory tour way back and went this morning. Super easy to take the train and one short bus ride from the city. Was really fun, when I mentioned I had recently got my 420 Cup, they called with the guy who built it and they dropped me off at his bay, and we had a nice long chat (he said they only have done something like 19 of them so far and he has built 9 of them). They had 4 or 5 cars under red car covers with the suspension and wheels removed, those they said were already built then disabled and coming to the USA. One USA car being built they said was this brownish one. I think it was an Aston Martin brown he said. If it's your car, I took a few  more photos I can pass along

. 

 

In fact, I think I tried to take a picture of every car that was being built, so if yours is still in process, I bet I have a picture of two of it. Seemed like over 1/2 were going to Japan though and most others getting assembled were non-USA cars. 

 

If you blow these up, I think you can see most of the ones being built

 

 

One of my favorite colors was this white one with a white painted dash, looks really great in person. Made me second guess my color choice about 100 times as I went through the factory. 

 

 

A few more random photos.

I love the two photos of the factory floor. Really interesting to blow them up and see the assembly bay details and also some of unique color combinations under build.

I think mine is there waiting on a container, I just paid my balance last week. Maybe you saw it!
