Standard width I also have a green pair aswell in nice condition

I'm laughing so hard here, you seem to spot things mere mortals can't!

Your less Dick Mayo and more Dick Emery!

What gearbox is it? May be the angle but it looks further forward than mine. My gearstick isn't particularly long but works well enough despite that.

What size are they

Lengthened my ridiculously short gear lever

Pricey, but I really recommend ram mounts ball mounted phone holders - rock solid once mounted

Yeah, they're nearly a thousand cheaper than that direct from Cobra at the moment. That's a lot to pay for Westfield embroidery.

Thank you, Captain and Mr Carrot 👍 Apologies for the lateness, however, my log ins to the land of all that is WSCC are less frequent.

Hi @TJB22 and The car looks great! As another 2.1 Pinto owner, I would love to catch up with you and your car at the Malvern show.

Scotchguard spray is another excellent water repellent, any supermarket or shoe repair shop.

Wow, thanks for the replies. I'd not thought of most of these things so I'm really glad I did this thread. I'll be sure to check the wipers tonight when I do some work on the car. If I need I can pick some up from Halfords as I'm going to try to find a phone holder for the trip from there too. As I say I have the full hood so I'll use that when it rains but I'll practice putting it on tonight too. I have maguire's version of rain X so I'll put some of that on both sides too. Thanks for pointing that out as I'd forgotten about it. I have a heater and heated screen so hopefully misting will be controlled as best as possible. Great idea re the carrier bag for the side doors. I'll experiment with that too and see what I can do to prevent water coming up. The air filter is fully under bonnet so that should be OK. It's just the battery and timing belt directly under the bonnet openings that's exposed. Just researched Wojtek. That's a fantastic story, thanks for pointing it out. I'll be sure to find the statue. My nerves are abated with your help! Still on the lookout for a hotel around the lakes (ish) if anyone can recommend?

Submit it and we’ll see, but I should warn you it may be used in evidence against you as well.

Westfield prices are spiralling up faster than my council tax! 🤪

Drivers seat Has a very small nick in the where its been rubbing againts the tub

I use RainX on out side of my windows and anit fog on inside of windows as I don't have a heater and I haven't had any issues. I hit massive rain storm for 45mins on A1 last year coming back form Newark kit car show and don't have a hood. Just have a clean cloth to wipe inside windows just incase. If air filter sticks out side of your car just might be worth using some air filter cleaner and oil to protect it and rain wont soak up as bad on it.

Here are the pictures for the people that Pm me about the seats Passengers seat

I moved from Worcestershire to Hampshire recently and had to drive my Westfield down here in the pouring rain with the full hood on. Mainly fast dual carriageways. Long time since the hood it but it wasn't as bad as I remembered. Noisier than with it off; suggest you stuff a carrier bag down between the sidescreen and the body on both sides to stop water coming up there. Other than that the only minor issue was drips occasionally coming through the gap where the front edge of the sidescreen meets the hood/windscreen. You don't need to waterproof any switches etc. IMO. Just make sure your wipers work OK and you'll be fine

🤮 not a fan of it tbh.

Yeah, best lay off the Scrumpy until dinner time

Quite possibly! 😳😳😳😭

Your gonna get a 2 week ban 🚫

It absolutely is legit! But.... I'm not sure the words Dick and Mayo should ever appear together in the same sentence 😂

I thought that might tickle you @Craigieboy That is it's real name though! 😁 Question for @Captain Colonial, does a picture of the car at the Dick Mayo Sprint count towards your Westfield Funny Place Name Challenge? 😂
