Default Anyone done the Jaguar factory tour?

Jaguar Factory Tour (link)

i need to spend a few days in london next month and am contemplating taking a day out to castle bromwich to do the tour.....it's a bit of a pain to get to from london so am wondering whether it's worth the experience.
has anyone been on the tour and if so, do you think it's worth a day trip?

I made a point to take the tour when I was in England and thought it was well worth the stop. Got to see both the XF and XK line.

The people are quite nice and the tour was very complete and informative. Most of the people there were owners of some Jaguar or another, and it's kind of fun to see where the come from.

I'd say go for it.

Agree, that it was well worth it. I was impressed with the clean factory, the interested employees and the tour guide.
I worked in the city of London for a few years so it was easy to do, as well I had recently ordered a 2010 XKR at that point for my return back to Canada, so I was interested to see them built.
