I know this may be controversial, but why are there so many absolutely terrible looking kit cars out there? I bought Complete Kit Car magazine for the first time (which has some very interesting articles) but some of the creations in there make my eyes burn. The so-called "replicas" based on cheap donors - especially the Ferrari ones, are just awful. The 458 "replica", based on what I imagine is a Ford Cougar, at £35k is just laughable! See below: http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/kit-cars/ferrari-replicas I fully understand that everybody has their own taste and that there's a real appeal of building you own car (my 81 year old Father has been building a Scimitar special for 15 years) but surely the people who design these cars must realise that in order to sell a kit car commercially, it has to look good in the first place? Sorry for the rant but over the years there just seems to be a steady stream of ill conceived rubbish that give decent kit cars a bad name. Anyone agree/disagree?

you can choose what location to put on the map and be as specific as you like. I havent yet coded it to link to existing location info.

Ive implemented this - please give it a try and we decide how workable it is.

Whilst I can understand that Westfield may not have an expensive stock handling/recording system the important issue for a lot of us Westfield owners is something called "customer care". I don't know much about stock handling systems but I do know about customer care having spent more than 40 + years in various customer service/customer care roles, and Westfield need to learn a few basic lessons. If Westfield have a problem with supply of parts etc, and it certainly seems they do, why can they not tell customers. A quick call to give updates or explain difficulties would do wonders for their image, answering their phones would give a better impression, replying to e-mails would show customers they really are interested. My experience with Westfield since buying my car late last year, fills me with trepidation should I need their help. As someone said in an earlier post, they only seem to pop up here when wanting to promote something.

Public apology to Rich, I confused Sports with Sports Turbo, idiot that I am.....seats are nice, but not what I was looking for. Thanks again for the trouble and again, apologies for my confusion.

hold that thought- I might be contacting you in 6-12 months time when Im back in uk and needing a westy again

Welcome Greg, sounds like it should be fun, and in the best colour too!
