Talk:Plant Oxford

Muddle within this article?

edit

I am not a local so I am not absolutely certain but it does seem to me that "Plant Oxford" is the old Pressed Steel site and has nothing to do with the old Morris site.

This is not clear in the article (is it not true?) even if the writers are aware of it. Eddaido (talk) 00:53, 31 January 2013 (UTC)Reply

It is on the site of the Pressed Steel works though it has been completely rebuilt. The Morris/BMC/BL factory was on the other side of the ring road and is now a business park. However, the various sites operated as a single integrated factory from the 1960s onwards, with a distinctive bridge over the road to transport car bodies which was only demolished in the late 90s. --Ef80 (talk) 23:43, 15 July 2014 (UTC)Reply

Hillmans built at Cowley

edit

I remember see Hillman Hunters being built at Cowley and also Range Rovers. have a look at: http://www.aronline.co.uk/blogs/facts-and-figures/in-production/in-production-cowley-timeline/ . However I cannot find good references, therefore I haven't included them in the article. SethWhales talk 19:09, 10 September 2015 (UTC)Reply

Johnson's cafe

edit

Removed the entirety of Johnsons cafe. Have no idea why anybody thought that would be relevant to an article about the BMW plant.?! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lordjeremias (talkcontribs) 12:35, 25 June 2016 (UTC)Reply
