Abandoned Delphi Diesel Systems

- Starting life in 1944 as CAV Engineering, the initial site in Sudbury was chosen as the Germans had information about the existing London sites. Sudbuy was chosen so it would be safer from the risk of bombing. Cav Engineering continued for many years before renaming to Lucas CAV, and then finally Delphi before it's eventual closure in 2020. Delphi as a company still exists, but is owned by BorgWaner.
Delphi manufactured diesel systems, injectors and filters. The downturn of diesel engines resulted in the begining of the end for the Sudbury site. In 2015 they planned to cut about a quarter of the workforce, and then in August 2017 they announced plans to close the site in mid 2020 resulting in the loss of 520 jobs.
This was filmed before the fire that was started by some local kids in April If you check out @StraightOuttaUrbex he did a video recently where he went back to see the damage that was done to the office section and roof, check it out!

Great video! Glad to see it before it was torched, shame. This look in so much better nick than when we went, still was a great explore none the less. Going back to BA training sims soon, to see if there still around.
@@UrbexUK2008 Cheers! That BA training place was our biggest regret not getting in, let us know how you get on, I Heard that they had upped the security quite a bit since and I've not seen any more people go in, so will be interesting to hear , thanks for watching 🙏
@@ExploringwithAustinandThomas Got some decent news! Visited that BA training place today. Some new cameras have been put in the corner of the site and dotted around the compound & the fence has been well repaired, but, it's all still there! It's a shame security is still there too.
I've just become your new supporter
@@JacksinUk Welcome Jacks! Nice to have you onboard 😎
Great video guys. So much to explore. Shame didn't see you in you're premiere, but we were there lol. Great information in the description. Keep up the good work. Take care and stay safe
@@ParanormalOnTheGo Cheers, meant to be in the premier but had to quickly pop round to help out my mum her sky box had stopped working 😁
Thanks for watching and the support!
@@ExploringwithAustinandThomas ah, the dreaded sky boxes lol 😆
@@ParanormalOnTheGo Yes my mum managed to pull the lead out of the back of the box 🙂
What an awesome factory to explore, guys. Great video 😎👌 Sorry I missed your live mate, hopefully on the next, see you soon, guys 🤘
Hi mate, cheers, we did this one all the way back in January, it's had a fire since 😢 No worries I only gave an hour's notice for the premier and then I had to run off to fix my mum's sky box so wasn't there for it anyway 😂 how are you guys doing?
@ExploringwithAustinandThomas We're doing great, mate. im looking forward to the scare 😱 fest next week in Gatwick, and Riley-James is looking forward to Halloween 🎃
Such a cool place. Some parts don't even look that bad. Thanks for the video!
Thanks for watching and the support as always 🎉 hope you're having a great weekend 😎
Nice video guys 👍👍 if you check the fire extinguishers they should have a date on them when they were last checked by the fire dep. that'll give you an idea of when it closed 👍👍
@@DE-eVOLVED Great idea, I know our fire extinguishers at work were massively out of date 😂 Thanks for looking mate, hope your all good, definitely support your idea of doing a live video 👍😎
@ExploringwithAustinandThomas I need to read up about Stream Yard - then we could do chats with guests ...like yourselves and other creators closer to our circle.. 👍👍
@@DE-eVOLVED Yeah we'd be up for that 👍
A lot of my family worked here there were loads of people who worked here and lost there jobs when it closed this factory was built in 1964 and it was know as CAV back then till Delpi took over till 2020 back in the 1964 when it opened the London over spill moved to the town as they got a job here a lot of them work there most of their lives
It looked like they had lots of things on the site to keep them happy like a football pitch and social club 😀 thanks for watching 👍
Great video, congratulations
@@Euseiagora Thanks for watching! 😎
The buildings been empty since 2020 i can see it from my house.
@@HA05GER Interesting, were you at home when kids set fire to it a few months ago?
@@ExploringwithAustinandThomas i was yes it was pretty bad.
Huh, Delphi were working on solid oxide fuel cells for diesel at one point. Looks like they gave up.
The local Constabulary looking to speak to you two, burglary or breaking and entry.
We never break into places, we access the sites through open doors or windows and certainly never steal anything, it would be a bad example to my son and to our viewers and channel, thanks for watching 👍😎
there is always one muppet isnt there? its not breaking and entering the place is wide open already broken into by the local copper thieves so maybe get your facts correct before comment such a idiot of a comment making yourself look stupid, because if thats the case why have they not spoken to me? ive been in there 5 times the locals dont care the police do not care i even spoke to the workmen sealing the place up and said i could go in so dont told such bs
come back when you learn to run a camera . you don't whip the camera from side to side when you come up to some thing interesting you move slow so people can get a good look at it before you move on. you have to take sea sick pills to look at your video.
Thanks for the feedback, since my son filmed this in January last year we have been very kindly gifted a camera stand from another explorer which has helped immensely with the stability and the speed of interesting points of interest are recorded. We do actually want to go back here to view the place again and see how it compares with a year ago, it would also be a great time to try out how in compares using the stand. 👍
