Dave, thanks for that information it’s always interesting to get early updates as out here this type of news comes a little later. This is what I found, lets just hope they get things sorted although selling this amount of vehicles does say something - Dave :D

2018 Nissan QQ Production Sunderland Plant (UK). Nissan Europe capped a record-breaking 2017 with the production of the three millionth Nissan Qashqai in the U.K., just over a decade after the category-defining vehicle made its debut.
This appeared yesterday as a new Video on YouTube but might well have been seen before, this Big Komatsu Press looks very impressive - Dave :)

Dave, I do not know if this is of any interest to you or older members in relation to the mentioned RAF Airfield, but I found this attachment. In Berlin there was an RAF Airfield in Gatow used during the Airlifts and when the East Germans stuck the Berlin Wall up, added an attachment and video if of interest, it is now a Museum - Dave :)

The RAF Usworth airfield was finally closed on 31 May 1984. It was sold to the Nissan Motor Company for the creation of a new car plant, which opened in 1985.

Known for most of its operational life as RAF Gatow, this former airfield is in the district of Gatow in south-western Berlin, west of the Havel river, in the borough of Spandau. It is now called General-Steinhoff Kaserne and is home to the „Luftwaffenmuseum der Bundeswehr“ the Luftwaffe Museum.
