abandoned factory

This is the main plant in Longbridge for the UK automotive manufacturer Rover MG. They were basically the last large scale UK automotive manufacturer. They were in discussions with a large scale Chinese automotive company to be under merger because Rover MG was under about $175million in debt. Because of this debt, some of their suppliers stopped shipping them parts, so they basically came in one Monday, realized none of their suppliers were sending parts, and sent everyone home at lunch time. They were hoping for an emergency loan from the UK government, but it didn’t come through. So, basically, they just stopped production and everything in the middle of the day and sent everyone home, that’s why everything is so undisturbed, computers still on, large amounts of bodies and frames sitting around, etc…

Thanks for the info.

It seems to me that this happens in America more than people hear about.

Who owns them now???
