I don’t think the photos are doing the ad any favours. You need to roll it out into the sunshine and take photos in landscape format. Better yet, photos of it in nice locations that help people imagine what owning it would be like. Photos of it in the garage don’t inspire or excite people (unless it’s a rare unknown car covered in dust - a Mercedes Gullwing alloy body that sat for 50 years just sold for $10m, but I digress). Better photos will help!

Thanks for the heads up i was ideally looking for westfield. But with factoring in getting them blasted and recoating and buying new balls i may aswell just buy brand new direct from rally design

Thanks to Mark @Cookie24 for your kind and generous donation. I really appreciate it!

Not us sorry, still floating around in a boat. Fingers crossed we will manage to get home for the Malvern weekend and come see you there. Have a great run all.

Engine back in today , sadly too much still to put back together before Sunday.

My shifts recently with work has landed on the run out and to say I’m missing the Sunday meet ups is an understatement

Great see you there

Meeeeee!! Yippee!!

Meet at Quackers Cafe, 10am for refreshments before heading off onto the fabulous Peak District roads. Who is coming? All welcome to the meet at Quackers, members only on the run out, keep it fair.

Perhaps contact Martin Letts, Hampshire and IOW AO too. He's been loads of times

Be careful. We all like a nymphomaniac but after a little while the nympho part leaves...

Good value for a submarine part. Usually when the word "marine" is added, the price triples, same as it does for "race" or "Cosworth"...

Thanks for your reply, no not advertised elsewhere. Have had issues with selling privately on other sites Autotrader etc. So just on here. Thought on Westfield OC it would be gone at the price asked. Have had one enquiry, but for some reason they seemed bothered about a bit of surface cracking on the fibreglass at the rear on a 24 year old body. Go figure that one. 🤔😄 Anyway thanks for your advice, much appreciated. 👍

Sorry Ian. Would love to have have met up again, but I'm in the US on that date. Hope you all have a great trip. Andrew

I'm very surprised this is still available - is it advertised elsewhere? CVH is underrated - we upgraded @Captain Colonial's car to throttle bodies a few years ago on a budget and transformed that - hopefully now the sun is out and with a fresh MOT you'll find the right buyer (suggest some fresh photos from all angles in the sun could help). Good luck!

Thank you so much, kind sir! @Tim-s

Cannot believe this is still for sale to be honest, bearing in mind the time of year and the price. Maybe it is too cheap, who knows. 😄 Price will be increased significantly anyway in a few weeks or so when mot should be done. 👍 Mark.

Done !!!! All the best @Ian Kinder (Bagpuss) - Joint Peak District AO

Yep. Been twice in a Westie in 2017 & 2018. I'll drop you a PM. Let's have a chat. Some info here-

Women are never free. Maybe at first, but not for very long.

Thanks @Chris Broster for your kind and generous donation too!

Hello All, I am off to 24hr LE Mans 2025 race event for the 1st time . I am off with my dad for his 60th birthday. Just wondered if anyone else had been to previous events. If got any tips or info etc, also what weather was like. We are in Porsche cayenne so have plenty of space with only x2 us going. We camping over at Beausejour next to Virage Porsche for the whole event. Not sure what it is like, dad booked it all so not sure what we get etc. He lives on Isle of man and bring car over this weekend so hopefully I get more details lol. We set off on Tuesday 10th June to set off from near Leeds, doing little road trip down. Pencilled in a visit café n machine, Clarkson farm and maybe his pub. Then getting over night ferry from Portsmouth to Le mans as campsite opens up Wednesday morning. The we leave Le mans on Monday 23rd June and return via Calais on ferry. Sort doing mini tour of North of France. Cheers Andy

I hate the way this is happening throughout the world. It's terrible for mental health. It's all done in the name of efficiency ie profit and it disgusts me quite frankly. Even GPs now you can't get to speak to anyone, it's all done online. Doctors are telling people to do the exact thing that is making people ill, it's ridiculous. Like we don't all spend too much time with screens as it is! And it's certainly not efficient from a customer's point of view, in the end 99% of the time I end up speaking to a person to get an issue sorted anyway, but it just takes 5 times as long as it used to. It sucks to say the least. It's nice to see the human touch with Howden. That should become a catchphrase. No charge. 😂 Rant over
