I was looking to organise a group visit to McLaren, this year before the pandemic came along. I contacted someone I know working there. It appears they don't offer tours, but I haven't given up yet. However, the Pandemic has put paid to that for the time being.
I am thinking of a trip to Morgan later this year, or whenever its possible. Yes, Im an old fart, but Ive always like the look of them, until I sat in one years ago at the Birmingham motorshow. The most uncomfortable car I ever sat in. Every dimension was wrong (for me). Ive continued still to admire the craftsmanship, but now things have moved on with new models since my awful experience in Birmingham. The recent More4 documentary building the new Morgan Plus 6 rekindled my interest to visit the factory. They did allow group tours pre pandemic, so it will probably be awhile before they open again for these. They may gulp at the site of a group of superior Ariel machinery turning up at the factory
So, when its possible, I will head up there, visit the factory, and also drive the Atom in the Malvern hills. Perhaps stay a night, a blast on the Brecons, then home.
If there is any tentative interest I can plan it as a group visit, when its possible.
Taking soundings?
