About
At dusk, Keith Harrison will release a full size clay replica of the final Rover 75 to leave the Longbridge carplant production line, down a temporary 10-metre high ramp:
‘At this point, I want to use this energy, this velocity to re-launch the vehicle; it is a release in the forest in all senses, at the edge of night and into unknown territory’
Joyride will be accompanied by a specially commissioned soundtrack and radio transmission that the audience will be able to tune into.
Visitors are invited to watch this spectacular event from viewing the craftsmanship of the model up close through to witnessing its ceremonial release.
