Is that a goddamm Sharan coming down the track at 4:21?! It's like getting a plate of macaroni at your local Italian and finding weird random bits of spaghetti in it.

Having just started working at the Nissan Washington (not in the factory though, for an agency) the use of photography is very very frowned upon, in case of industrial espionage etc ( like Nissan will produce anything worthy of passing to Top gear etc :rolleyes: ) It will most likely have to be official VW footage inside any of their production lines, I would have thought.

ND10: Are you allowed to park in the Nissan factory car park if you:-

1. Are an agency worker.
2. Haven't got a Nissan.

I used to work at the Ford Transit Van plant in Southampton and they made employees with non-Ford cars park within a zone at the back of their off-site (across the road from the main plant) employee car park. One of the electrical engineering contractor companies didn't have Transit vans, they had Mercedes vans, so they were only allowed onsite with those vans to load or unload, the vans weren't allowed to linger onsite, even though all the other contractors Transit Vans were allowed to be parked within their respective compound areas.

Aye no problems parking anywhere on site, certainly none where I park, probably only 50% Nissan cars in any of the car parks anyway. I used to live in Eastleigh, where the Transits are made, seems we are following each other around :lol:
