Austin Factory Tour

[euan]

Hi all,

Living near Birmingham as I do, I found about this recently - might be worth a combination with a trip to the factory?

There are apparently a lot of old Mini's in it (have a look at SniffPetrol on twitter from yesterday for some pics), and Lord Austin's old office is there as it was when he worked there.

Heritage Motor Centre Museum & Conference Centre Gaydon is 33 miles from oxford on the way home as well but it’s a case that some will probably just want to get back up the road, but it does look fantastic. It has a good Mini part to it.

I get in to Gaydon free with my work pass ;)

Have a look at some pics from Sniffpetrol (worth a follow on Twitter purely for the F1 chat) - http://twitpic.com/photos/sniffpetrol
