Hethel on Google maps

As title - you can snout around the test track and factory!

That's awesome! Love the fact they've let the Google car go around the track - no doubt the slowest lap ever...

From memory, it was going around the track at normal road speeds, (Not the usual test track car speeds). this was about 12 to 14 months ago. Very good images.
Even my old car is in the carpark.

Jim Clarke Type 25 SC not selling well? I can count 7 on THIS SHOT alone and I bet there are more in that car park.

How many did they make?






Nice factory interior shot here: CLICK CLICK

They made 25 for the UK and 25 Left hookers for shipping, I'd love to know if mine is on there (no 20), I can't tell when the shoot was made. Great pics though!

The Type 25's (and similar) are normally made in batches. The Google car must've come around as they were being built

So did you did make the whole 25 as a batch or was it a case of a few at a time?

I don't know to be honest mate. I'm based more over on the engineering side of the site, I only really venture over to the manufacturing side to set up jigs and fixtures on the line and the odd full car audit.

I'll have a word when I'm next over there though. I think the Type 25's are lovely by the way

ETA I do know that normally the special editions seem to be made in batches though, guess the bits are ordered by batch.

Cheers for that Srob, must be a great and interesting job you have, nice one.
I think the 25 is lovely too but I'm ready for an E cup soon. (not my man breast bra size) I really fancy and Exige, even in the summer I hardly take the roof off the 25 as I think it spoils the aesthetics, plus I want more power!!!
