Drawing together projects together with staff from 10 dissimilar locations across the West Midlands, the novel edifice is less of a cosy ‘workshop’ – alongside cups of tea together with an oily Haynes manual – together with to a greater extent than similar a gleaming, modern factory.
Spread across 14,000 square-metres alongside 54 service bays, JLR claims it’s the largest of its type inward the basis
The Classic trouble organisation straightaway comprises of iv dissimilar streams: at that topographic point are the continuation cars, similar the nine cook new, hand-built Jaguar XKSSs currently nether construction.

And at the centre of all this action is the novel factory. From September, members of Blue Planet volition hold upwardly able to instruct circular the Classic Works on a guided tour.
