PERKINS is to close the Ho ton plant in Peterboroug where its range of V8 dies( engines is manufactured.
It says the move has bee prompted by a planned 33 pc cent increase in Cambridge shire rates.
It is likely that V8 engin production will be transferre. to the main Eastfield plant also at Peterborough, wher its in-line diesel engines ar built, but the company say this decision has not yet bee! finalised.
But there is no question Perkins stopping productio of V8 engines when Fletto: closes next year.
