The new site is also adjacent to the motorway, only about 500 yards further North on the M40, just over the railway line, so you will probably still be able to wave!!!!

Wonder if he will still have his helipad?

Hella moved to eastern Europe, cheaper. The hella factory is about 10 minutes away from the old one but not on the same industrial area.
