Please see below for details. Glen and I will be there from 10am for our usual area meet and there will be a run out for WSCC members after breakfast if the weather permits. The £10 charge only applies for people wanting to visit the museum. Parking, access to the cafe and toilets is free to all. Hi Julie, We would like to invite your members to an exclusive event for the owners of Lotus, Caterham and Westfield cars on June 15th here at The Great British Car Journey. Since opening in May 2021, we have been awarded a TripAdvisor Excellence Award, three Peak District & Derbyshire Tourism Awards Visit and are also a Visit England Quality Assured Attraction. Our attraction houses a collection of over 140 British cars from the early 1900s to the early 2000s. The collection begins in the early 1900s right up to the current day and there's everything in between - Austin Sevens, Minis, Morris Minors, Triumph Spitfires, Ford Escorts, etc. - marques and models that have long since disappeared from our roads but are remembered fondly by many car enthusiasts. As the name suggests, visitors experience not just a car museum but an interactive nostalgic journey celebrating the heyday of British motoring. As well as our superb collection, we offer ample on-site car parking and a licensed café - The Filling Station, which offer a range of catering options to suit all budgets, from breakfast rolls to brunch, buffets to burgers. Our themed event days such as the one on June 15th, offer the chance not only to take the museum tour at a huge discount, but visit the outside attractions, and refuel yourself in the Filling Station Cafe too. Simply click the link below to pre-pay tickets at £10 per person (usually £19.50 on the door). https://online1.venpos.net/ConsumerSite/ShowPage?LID=632&PID=f7cdb0df-93df-4ede-abef-0502633a56f3 Please feel free to share the link with your members and fellow enthusiasts. We look forward to seeing you on the day Kind regards Ian Shaw Who is joining us?

Yellow is a popular colour. Great day. Anybody got any other pics or vids to post ?

Would you sell the center caps ?

Just placed another add, would be happy at £9500, so have altered ad

Update I have signed on at castle Coombe even though the 7 series don't appear in the list at the moment. I will send an email to Bristol mc and let them know.

A further kind and generous 2nd donation of @CosKev greatly appreciated. Many thanks you wonderful people!

For those who like pure pork.

Is this still in the schedule. Trying to enter but our championship doesn't appear in the invited list

Reduced price and updated photos

Bump as price reduced and fresh MOT and currently being serviced.

I got stuck in load of traffic on way back from airport run to Birmingham. as I was going to pop in but it was getting closer to 12 noon I knew you be out on drive by then.

I used both as i have a return fron the radiator to the header and also one from the thermostat. You could always jubilee an end cap on if not using both https://ebay.us/m/D9zSON

I can confirm they are Midilites, and would fit under Team Dynamics 1.2 13"

I have the same calipers (thanks @LoneWolf for correcting the spec) and Compomotive CXR wheels and they fit 👍

Ok thanks everyone for the info. Until as always I have compomotive cxr wheels.

I live locally can help out on either Sat or Sun. More than happy to help wiith teardown on Sunday if others are trying to get on the road. I've only had my car for a year and looking forward to seeing what others have done to their cars.

Yep, when it comes to the mid size and bigger four pot calipers, it’s just impossible to talk in generalities when it comes to 13” wheels fitting or not. You have to be specific about which caliper/disc type you have - sometimes with the radial mount types, even the specific kit used. At the same time you also have to be specific about the precise alloy wheel make, model and size. As has been said, many 13” options, I suspect probably more the budget to mid price types like many Minilite replicas, have rims that are just too thick for some of the four pot options. Where as the more premium types, like Images range, Compomotive CXR’s etc - all designed to be lighter weight, but strong, are that bit thinner with a bit more room for the calipers.

The calipers look to be Midilites, which are what RallyDesign is offering with the 285mm disc. They market that as 15" only, but I agree with @mTT97 as clearance hugely depends on the wheels used. Split rims usually have much more space than one piece wheels.

Great weekend and weather at Blyton Good to see everybody including Hedley who spent all weekend taking photos of the action

Never liked that bit of the island - perhaps her aura is all consuming.

Thanks for the feedback @westfield_bumble. I noticed the two input feeds and also that on the WPS listing one just seems to have had a small bolt screwed in to it. I understand this is often done on Polo radiators quite often, but it doesn't seem best to me!

These look now like Wilwood Powerlite calipers to me. If they are, they fit under 13” Team Dynamics 1.2 and Compomotive CXR wheels. I believe Minilites have thicker rims…..

New to the Westfield club! Just picked this up from Toybox last week. First drive was collecting her from Burton and driving back to North London on the A roads in the glorious sunshine! And a lot of driving this 1st weekend including a meet up with a friend and his GBS Loving every second so far!

Thanks for a great run out Julie. The food at the Bike and Boot was very good. I've not been there before. Nice to catch up with you all and nice to meet you Andy and Ann.

Here you go!
