    Report - Longbridge Tunnels - Birmingham - December '15

    I think nearly everyone and his doggo went here so i never posted a report at the time. The first 2 shots are of the last Mini to leave Longbridge which I'm sure some of you photographed in situ about a decade before. https://www.flickr.com/photos/mr_sam/albums/72157713876836322

    Report - Rover Trentham Command Centre - Longbridge, UK, 2010 - 2012

    It's been a while since I have posted on here, and what I'm posting isn't new, but something I've kept/forgotten about until various Rover reports were seen on FB. Ever since I originally visited MG/Rover in 2007 I have been in touch with ex-Rover employees, one of whom was in charge of the...

    Report - MG Rover plant, Longbridge January 2017

    This has been done a few times times now, but demolition has started on a fundamental part of the remaining part of the factory, as the next phase of demolition has started.

    Vehicle Graveyard , Loddiswell May 2016

    Randomly come across this place one afternoon so went and had a mooch. Seems that someone had been living on the premises at some-point but a shame to see so many cars just abandoned although strangely some were filled with newspapers.  Pics were taken on phone and video available via my...

There is quite a story with me and this spot, I first 'found' it over two years ago while I was searching for locations for my first ever trip to Belgium but as the blog...

    Report - Jaguar Land Rover Engine Plant, Wolverhampton, October 2013

    I had the opportunity to get around the new JLR engine plant last month. Alas it is not at its best stage yet as only a fraction of the production line had been installed then. The site itself covers 250,000 square feet spread across two massive halls, one for manufacturing parts and one for...
