I may now have to rethink this project. Having decided on a JPS inspired theme of a gloss black car with gold (well, copper) decals, I had a possible design drawn up. But the cost has come in at approximately £3400 inc. Vat - which is too much for a project being done just for a bit of fun. Perhaps naively, and based on nothing in particular, I had thought it might have been around half that, given the diminutive size of the vehicle. Oh well. So, plan B, look at having it painted, and probably stick to a gloss dark green. Anyone have a ball-park idea of the cost to paint a Westy?

Won’t make this one due to my work curry night Till the Xmas night…. Andy

I'll be there

As long as the weather and health hold up – gotta keep doing it! It’s not gonna last forever… But while you can – just go for it! This clip’s actually 2× speed,:) but it still shows what’s I felt and what is awesome about kit cars – it’s not about the km/h, it’s all about the feeling. But I am sure You know that ! Way more intense than in any regular production fancy car!

I watched it on YouTube earlier, looks almost like your own personal hillclimb! Just makes me want to get the car out that does 👍

Maybe last ride this year , golden autumn, only watching recording... I had to speed up the video to show what I actually felt while riding

Hi A pair of Westfield 4 pot calibers along with EBC Green Stuff pads in good condition ... removed from my Megabusa when switched to Willwood radial units .. see photos for mount diamensions ... £175 + P&P at cost

Thanks for that. This was me experimenting this summer with a slightly cranked lever: It's hard to see from the angle but it does tuck under the dash a bit. With the size of the Westfield remote I do seem to have to choose between under the dash or reaching back a bit, at least with the lever with the amount of crank that I had. When the weather improves I'll experiment a bit more 😁

The Type 9 gear lever was bent as close to the bottom as possible. (Oxy acetylene heated to cherry red, then bent) Then the shaft was shortened and re-threaded. It has been used for a number of years. No problems at all. I made a jig to clamp the lower end of the gear lever in a vice. That 1. Avoid damaging the bottom end of the lever. 2. Controlled where the bend starts, e.g. not too low. The car is a wide body 2L Zetec, with an initially MT75 gearbox, but it was later converted to a Type 9.

As there’s no forum update or patch notices available for Admins to view, I’m guessing no updates or fixes yet…

Just bought a new one 😎 cheaper than a Westfield 😎

Not seen anyone tested for Years

👍 See you there

Do you feed it up before hibernation

Couple of questions, what's the wood in front of the radiator for? And don't you find dust sheets, curtains etc can get damp and cause issues? I threw a pair of curtains out recently damn it! I just usually use a good breathable car cover.

I've got a pump.

Yes should be there if I can sort my flat battery out !

@WSCC Webmaster perchance did you find any more out about this? 'Cos it's still doing it

Very impressive! I’ve been trying to do a brief attempt at an owners/workshop manual for the Midlana. Very difficult to find the motivation tbh. Done about 20 pages so far.
