I can't see that being a good choice BMW engines don't exactly have a reputation for simplicity.

There are no NA engines in the current BMW lineup tho...

There were some great cars at GBS this evening!

I can't be there tomorrow, so keep us informed about the Westfield stand, preferably with pics

I'll see anyone who's going there tomorrow. It'll be interesting to see the Westfield stand......

I'll be parked up around the corner 10am 😅

What time is everyone planning on arriving tomorrow.

In our usual inimitable fashion, just as the car is ready to collect, we’re off on holiday for a week 🙄 However, I should have the four post lift fully installed and working by the end of Sunday 🤞

Please let there be an r53 engined version

Can't beat a tailored cover.

Yeah, can’t help noticing a BMW lurking in the background of a few of their photos surrounding the project…

Rumours linking BMW engines. No specifics.

I’d ask for your money back, as it’s quite visible 😂

Unfortunately you couldn’t see the cover/obstacle when dark! Leaving the Stoneleigh tent late that year was fun. Too many beers. We also meet the WSCC horse that year too!

A Westfield R500 then!

For me distance isn’t a problem just consider it a road trip and enjoy your car!

Fits like a glove that does

From Manchester it's all of 17 miles further to Malvern than Stoneleigh.....

You’d be wrong. I also have a video too Mr @Ian Kinder (Bagpuss) - Joint Peak District AO

I'll put money on it being a tuned 2L Duratec (maybe by Cosworth from a rumour I've heard, so far from concrete), and brand new engines too, as I believe the factory need to be able to produce 100% new vehicles. Otherwise, I can only agree with others expressing their disappointment at how little the club have been told about this ahead of the preview. I understand that existing owners maybe make a poor target audience for selling a new car, but there's a lot of value in word of mouth and opinion. I'm still waiting on the new XI that was supposed to be here last year as well!

Can't recall the name but there is a more northern big kit car show later in the year after Malvern isn't there?

Indeed. The club future (and name) discussion was parked again (from my perspective at least) pending filling the new committee positions (2 still vacant) and pending these promised updates from Westfield Chesil Ltd 🙁

It's quite sad the club hasn't been involved into this. It's also sad the discussion about the future of the club (and its name) seems to have lost momentum...

I'll have a good look tomorrow 👍

Don't jump to blame the Club members here, this is all on Nigel! He made promises and assurances to us that haven't been kept, yet. Hopefully we can get some more details following the event at least
