The factory's a shadow of its former self, assembling (Renault?) vans with a Bedford badge. Most it's been demolished. There was the printing of (Sun?) newspaper group for a few years, but I think that's gone as well now. IIRC there's a load of housing going in.

Luton sits in a valley, with the airport at the top of the Eastern side. Vauxhall was in the valley below. Useful if the planes landed short, they could bounce in off Vauxhall's roof - as least that's what it felt like sometimes!
