Rolls Royce Motor Cars Factory Tour
« on: September 14, 2010, 10:43:27 am »
Hi ladies and gents,

I'm kinda new here but here goes.

I work for Rolls royce and we used to get a lot of car clubs coming down to the factory parking up in the courtyard taking lots of pictures and then coming around the factory for a tour.

I can use my contacts here at work to organise this if there is any interest in this.

There may be a small contribution required to our local Charities but this is normally no more than £5 a head.

What do you say?

Stu.

The facility looks stunning, so could well be up for this... especially if the courtyard you are talking about is the one in the video on the goodwood tab.

If you drive out of the Motor Circuit turning right then the next roundabout is the entrance to Rolls.  :smiley:

I suddenly thought about date etc and that i hadn't suggested anything... i will try for a saturday but this might not be possible and it may end up needing to be a weekday evening.

Saturday would be preferable or even a Sunday like the Pistonheads Sunday Service.

The reason we opened the factory for piston heads on the sunday was because of the numbers we were expecting!

I've contacted the guy who was organising the piston heads sunday service and shall see what he comes back with.
