Could do a sleep in the cars (been asked before about this) and not sure what's made there, but more investigation will be needed first

I'd like to see some of the battle fields whilst there and Reims (obviously optional) but as driving everyone can please themselves to some extent

Not priced it yet, £15-20 to go around the factory, they are very fussy in Ghent about who they let in as well.

Lol.

Wasn't The Shark made there, or is Ghent a former Ford plant?

If the 11th digit on the VIN is a '2' fella then it was "MADE IN GHENT"
