Some shots of Longbridge (pic warning, there's lots of them!)
I came accross this site not long after I bought my ZR, and thought I'd share them with those who might not have seen them

Taken from the www.28dayslater.co.uk website























































It still brings a tear to the eye looking at these. It's weird to think the place is just a concrete slab now

The TF-X with the big body kit looks like it would have been interesting

I will take the TF-X in silver yes please!

The amount of bodyshells that got crushed too.....just appalling. Shame I didn't have the money and the space.......I would have bought as many as I possibly could. A few ZS shells...a few ZR shells and as many TF ones as I could get my hands on.

Awesome site that. Am I right in thinking that part of the factory is the one that has been demolished??
