The Jaguar Factory in Brown's Lane gives tours. I took the
tour and have some pictures here:

...but the pictures are all from the outside, no photography
allowed inside.
In the factory, there is almost no automation. Many large
machines to manipulate the components as they go together,
but always with a human.
