Sunderland bids farewell to Almera
THE last Almera to be produced at Nissan's Sunderland factory was completed last week.
The Almera was launched in January 2000 as a replacement for the Sunny, and 800 new jobs were created at Sunderland to cope with the extra work.
The Sunderland plant produced 639,000 Almera models. In the last six years it has been exported to 45 countries. Nissan is now concentrating on other models such as the Note mini-MPV and the forthcoming Qashqai.
