Factory Tour

Did it today , it’s an absolute must if you want to see and appreciate the precision and care with which your car is built . Got to see some outstanding cars , even got to have a sit in a beautiful Aston Martin Valour …..only 150 will be built . Stunning car . Also got up close and personal with a current F1 car and a Valkyrie .
Amazing day out …
Do it you won’t regret it .
Huge Tks to Chris our tour guide , exceptionally knowledgeable and a real “Car Guy” .

Are you an AMOC member? I'd try that route.

is Golden saffron a bright yellowish green ? If so then yes it was on the production line but I checked the build sheet for it and it was going to Switzerland so don’t think it was your car .
