this also must be wrong .
as JEL was Cowley built and JBH was made in Longbridge.

Just been looking at my car's data, and I must admit I felt rather emotional, when you actually see the details of build times down to the second, you can't help but think of the group of people who worked to actually build this beautiful car, it is a very strange feeling, the things that went through their mind whilst doing the work, their conversations, I just thing is so important to build things, to be seen to achieve is so important.
It is shameful that we make next to nothing in this country anymore.
