Rolls-Royce Motor Club visit GBS for a Factory Tour….
/We get a lot of enquires for Factory Tours for owners clubs and sports car clubs all over the country, earlier this year we were approached by Henry a GBS Customer who has a Zero Race to ask if we would do a factory tour for a club he is a club secretary for which is the Rolls Royce Motor Club.
We offer a few Factory Tour dates throughout the year including weekends and evenings and on Saturday we were pleased to welcome 25 members from the Rolls-Royce Motor Club to the GBS factory for a tour of our facilities with Richard and the GBS team. During their tour they saw a lot of behind the scenes of how our bespoke sports cars and products are produced. Thomas was in our Machine Shop demonstrating what he does on the CNC machines and how parts are designed and manufactured. Two members of the club have built a Zero sports car and it was great to see that one of them arrived in his Zero, despite the heavy rain on the day!
Feed back from the tour was very positive and enjoyed by all, one member emailed to say
GBS is an amazing company. Their engineering exceeded by far my expectations. They can potentially redefine the kit-car and definitely set new standards for the "sevens". Their parts are retrofitted in other "sevens".
It is one of the those stories "if what is available on the market is not good enough, DIY" And all these with very competitive prices. – Anestis G, Rolls-Royce employees Motor Club
The morning generally starts with tea/coffee and biscuits in the GBS Show room then onto the GBS Workshop, Design & Development Room, Machine & Engineering, Clean Room, Kit Spares Store and then back into the showroom for more refreshments, questions and often a test drive in one of our Zero demonstrators.
Our GBS Factory Tours are free but we ask for a kind donation to be made to our chosen charities which are Cancer Research UK and Notts & Lincs Air Ambulance.
We hope that the Rolls Royce Motor Club all enjoyed their visit to GBS and we would like to say thank you for your kind donations that you made on the day. Click here to see a short video that we created of when the Rolls Royce Motor Club members visited us.
