Be good to see you if you can make it..

Did you see Bens post about the 126 magazine shoot..? I seem to recall you did one with your Stilo

Your 126 is probably the brightest ..and most 'right' looking of its type

Probably passed it many times, no idea which it is. I don't even know where the factory used to be, all gone before I moved North.

I was still at school in 1981..

Looked at a map the other day..

Nuffield Way leading to Kimber Close

There might be a clue there

Behind the B&Q opposite Tesco

Or those roads could be newer, and named to commemorate the lost factory.
