Factory

[oilit]

I was fortunate enough to have a factory tour today.

I have to say that it was so refreshing to see so many people working at the factory who had smiles on their faces, seemed to be enjoying their day, and were happy to talk about what they were doing!

If you get the chance to have a factory tour I strongly recommend it - the good people of Gaydon are what we invest in when we buy an AM - and if the atmosphere I witnessed continues then I am delighted to be associated in my small way!

Thank you AM Gaydon!

Second that....I also had a tour today and was mightily impressed. Our tour guide, Jackie, was so enthusiastic and knowledgeable, really infectious and feel even more bonded to the brand now.

One story was told as we were going through the Heritage section and admiring a stunning original Vantage Volante which I feel I must share but may make some of you cry (I almost did).......a gentlement on an earlier tour remarked he had inherited an identical car left to him by his father last year but as he had no idea what it was or any interest in cars, he sold it.....for £6,000......! Apparently he was very happy at the time and enjoyed a nice holiday on the back of it....
