Well some come and some go but I have an eyewitness that went by the JKD works in Woking and reports the place is gone, no one there, equipment gone. Done, kaput, finished.

Another local business neighbor said the trucks came a hauled it all off.

I think its be difficult now that the major funding of Rover is no longer there. There isnt realy any Brittish automotive industry left to take advantage of their abilities, and the general public want their straight cut gearsets and fivespeed boxes cheep as chips. Something has to give.

So when some joey comes on here about how his 16v turbo vauxhall is great compared to ours, he can be given the 'bird'...

I'd say that Keith the Jackal would buy up everything and then poach the bits he wanted and put the rest in a shed. It would stop anyone going into competition against him.

Bugger off, I'm getting there.

if im quiet honest everytime i've rang jack knight the respose has been about as much use as a message saying 'no longer in use'

hardly the way to run a good business with customer care/sales as bad as that.
