Hi,
I dont know if this is the best place to post this but in April Im touring Europe in my 84 Capri 2.8i and I am taking it back to the factory where it was built near Cologne, does anybody know if they have a visitors centre or if you can sneak in for a pic or two if you arrange it in advance?

Any help gratefully received, pic of my Baby below-

Good luck with this, don't want to put a dampener on it but it will probably be only in German. But I guess you will still enjoy looking, even if you don't know what the guide is saying!

I believe the factory tour is just that - you get to look (from a distance) at goons fitting suspension to Fiestas and that's about it. There is no museum or collection of Old-timers, shame really.
