Either last or this year.

2 trucks in the yard give it away. Plus the old cars on the dirt carpark are gone.

I'd guess at 2006, seeing as Microsoft did their photography last year, so I've been told.

There was a wedge on the roof last year .. that's not in the picture.

Looks like there are 3 Wedges on the roof there to me, Rev!

Definately not whilst there was production as there are no chassis's in their storage area.

You can tell by the shadows, the foliage and the intensity of the light that it's just after 1.35pm on the 3rd., June, 2006.

What happened to the trucks?

Judging by the cars in the staff carpark it was summer '06 and the 3 wedges are on the roof, look harder.

For what this is worth.. Last July at 'Back Home' I took some factory pics, the yellow skip was there and full as per this pic, the 2 lorries were parked as shown, the 'scrap' white bodies in the yard to the left are as I saw them, but how often they had a clear out....

And how wmany cars were actually made in 2006 ?

The yard gates seem to be open, so Ii guess it must be before Nov last year
