Hi, I've just rejoined the club after a few years away as I've recently bought a new car. Anyone know it? It started life as an early (1990 chassis) wide body cross flow in red. It was substantially rebuilt by someone in the 2000s and converted to its current Puma 1.7 Sigma engine. It was then repainted at some stage by the previous owner. It's a bit poorly at the moment. The ECU config / map has been messed up and I was told before I bought it that it's down on compression on 3&4 so that needs investigating next. It's clearly been left outside and got wet but although the carpets have suffered, the chassis etc seems to have survived OK. First step is getting it running and then I'll make it look a bit more loved. I've already got a list of parts needed in the wanted section. I'd really like some different wheels!

mine came in green gelcoat I sprayed it a few years later, and it's due again

Mine's BRG! This is an outdated photo, and there's lots of tidying up to do, but it's green. Was this a factory colour option or?

What booster are they on, @mega ade?

Results enclosed for the Anglesey Weekend, where we had 13 Competitors which was a great turnout. Any omissions or errors please let me know. 7s Speed Series - Round 2 ver2 Anglesey Sat 6-4-25.pdf 7s Speed Series - Round 3 Anglesey Sun 7-4-25.pdf

Bump again.

Thank you @AndrewBClarke for taking us out today while @Julie Hall - WSCC AO Representative is off enjoying herself . Today we discovered we don’t own a Westfield but a time travelling vehicle 🤔 after a few years in the re-making @Martyn Vann - Warwickshire AO is back in the fold 😎 great to see you both with smiles on your faces ,and we’re back to having a buddy to drive up to the peaks with. See you all soon Andy & Becky up Wynats pass it wasn’t too busy the back roads ( somewhere! ) the red car back on the road

I have a couple roll bars for sale on the for sale page.

Thanks for the offer. I could use one or two of the standard square rear cluster but I'm not looking to change style.

Great mark thanks for the support 👍

Not on your list, but title suggests you’re after lights - I’ve got a set of Land Rover 95mm round NAS spec rear lights (2x stop/tail, 2x indicator, fog & reverse), complete with bulb holders, and four plinths if you’re interested? They retail from £12-15 each (as opposed to Westfield £35ea.), but I’m after £20 for the set plus P&P. Let me know if interested!

On the way home I stopped off at Baffle Haus and South Wales Aviation Museum. It’ll be worth having a breakfast meet at Baffle haus (old post) and then it’s 15-20 minutes to S.W.A.M.

that yellow V-Storm is spectacular!

Thanks for organising it, it was a good day out, well worth the trip over.

I can't tell you how jealous I am of the Derbyshire & Peak District roads and days out! I'm glad you're out enjoying them since I can't 😭

Here’s a couple of pics from me 😎 a fantastic run led by Andrew, great to meet friends old and new 👍

A few pics from me.

Met up with Thunderbird 2 for a picnic at Turweston aerodrome.

Hi Everyone. East Anglia meetup 26th April at old hunstanton lighthouse car park. Meet around 10am . Cafe on site. Be good to see new faces. Should be a great turnout. If you need any more info please get in touch. Cheers martin East Anglia AO

just back from a lovely sunny evening run trying out my 4 year old grandsons new booster seat he loves going out in the meg says its his favourite toy.

great meet thanks paul

Further to discussion with Tony ( @DamperMan) and @Maurici- CleaR Motorsport I wound the perches down two full turns on both sides and stiffened the shocks up to 9 clicks. I drove it 30 or so miles to the Cheshire meet on Thu night like this. The banging was reduced in frequency and intensity over some of our poor quality roads but the ride stiffness was harder and I'd not want to run like this normally. It would be fine on track. I dropped the shocks to 0 clicks on the carpark at the Golden Pheasant and demonstrated the knocking to @Greenstreak-Andy D who agreed it was likely the dampers in full extension. I wound the clicks up to 5 for the journey hold and it was crash and bang city all the way. Yesterday morning, I've reset my front to 140mm and rear to 165mm (chassis rail not lowered floor) with my weight in the car and set the rear shocks to 6 clicks up (front are at 5 clicks up). This is how I've ran since originally fitting the Spax in Nov 2022. A short 15 mile test drive confirmed all the be wonderful and no more knocking. clearly I've undone all @Maurici- CleaR Motorsport good work with the corner weighting, however it was always an experiment for me with my mobile laboratory. I enjoy it. Some experiments work, some don't. I'm just home from a great 100 mile trip round the peaks with approx 50 of those with a 12 stone passenger and the car has ran fine. no knocks, no bottoming out handled great. @Maurici- CleaR Motorsport has kindly offered to take a look at my corner weights free of charge, so I will revisit in the next few weeks, but I'll not be adjusting the ride height at the rear much higher!

Yes, it’s still available.
