Tour of Prodrive in Banbury - 7th May 2017

Post by IanG » Tue Feb 28, 2017 12:04 pm

I have just spoken to Jackie at Prodrive, a Tour of the factory can be arranged starting off with tea/coffee and biscuits.  Jackie would go through the history of Prodrive and then go through to the motorsport work shop where we can see a collection of historic rally and race cars starting from early 80’s. the tour will continue in the body and fabrication shops then onto subassembly, electrical, car build, Automotive technology department ending with the customer racing cars all this take approximately 2 hours.  This would be at a cost £20.00 per head.

Please let me know who would be interested and possible weekend dates you are available during March, April and May.

Just spoken to Prodrive, no dates available in April, so the Sunday 7th May at 11.00am has been booked.  Thought we should book sooner rather than later as dates are booking up.

The address for Prodrive is Chalker Way, Banbury OX16 4XD.

Hope this is suitable for everyone - see you then - please remember your £20 cash.

Sorry Ian - Unfortunately that date does't work for me as I'm doing Tough Mudder... (I know where I'd rather be!)
