Honda Fever hit the Peak District today, first Scott arrived in his S2000 engined car Soon to be followed by Ian in his S2000 engined car with Paul and Pat in the GT86 and my decidedly small Zetec, that made 4 cars, not bad for 2 days before Christmas. Don't mention the wonky parking. A Tesla, I think a Model S, with a number plate TESSLA, silently pulled into the car park and waved at us. This ex-Lotus 7 owner had just driven up from London and was breaking his journey with a visit to the Peak District, needless to say, he loved our cars. I am sure he loved our noise as we roared past him too (he was parked, I don't mean overtaking him). We wiggled our way up some lovely, empty country roads until we found the bank of fog. I was reconsidering todays route in my head and suddenly, we were back in sunshine, so I stuck with the original plan. Out of Buxton and then I slowed the whole thing down, so we could enjoy the views, then it was up the one way road and on to the ice cream farm. It was here where Scott and Ian had a 'who can have the dirtiest car' competition. Honestly, did you guys somehow drive on a different road to me? Blaze Ice Cream Farm, including one relatively clean Westfield. The main objective of the day was to eat ice cream, so after lunch we all excitedly decided which flavour we were going to have. Scott couldn't decide, so he went for the double cone and had 2 flavours, clever man. I chose the Baileys Ice Cream and I got the same hit at the back of my mouth that you get when you drink Baileys, luscious. When we came back out, a lot of the fog had lifted. Ian was quick to ask if this is where the Westfield XI is kept Decisions, decisions, and this is only half of the range on offer. The festive Little Donkey Look at me, I am a cute depositor of detritus. As we dropped down off the tops, we drove back into sunshine, which made for a pretty route home back via Cromford, where we all divided up. Home, that is, in time to get the car washed before the light faded, 'before all that muck dries on' says Glen. Thanks for coming everyone, I hope you have enjoyed the roads as much as we have and hope to see you all again soon .

Me too...... See you at 10.00

Nope, for the mini. Dad said the one in there is starting to bend so he fancies upgrading, it's currently 350mm which I find a tad on the large side. Ideally want 300mm but they don't seem to exist!

I am just starting life in the Westfield world. I am in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, where, it seems, there aren't a lot of Westfields (if any)! After much consideration, (and retiring), I am finally getting around to one of those items on the list. Getting the kit at all in Canada is a challenge. Transport Canada does NOT like kit cars. Happily, the North American distributor, who is in Texas, seems to know his stuff. He provided most of the paperwork ready to submit to TC, and I have my authorization to import. I have the donor Miata sitting in the garage awaiting teardown, and am finalizing the details of the kit order. Does anyone have experience fitting a turbocharger on the Miata SDV build. My donor car is already turbocharged (a bonus). Is there any problem with clearances under the bonnet? I am hoping to use the single piece FW front end. Any suggestions on options I should definitely consider? This will be a road car, as there is no such thing as a track anywhere in Western Canada, let alone track days. If anyone is nearby, I'd love to chat with someone local about the Westfield experience. I am entirely new to forums in general; this is the first one I have ever joined, so feel free to critique my content!

@BCFi have a couple in the garage will take a look at what I have over Christmas and let you know

Saw you coming down Slack on your way back home. I waved but was in the tin top so you may not have recognised me. Have a great Christmas. Luke.

Any Westfield options for bear repellent? Welcome and enjoy the build. Wishing you and your family a very merry Christmas and a happy and healthy 2018.

It's foggy and damp here, but I'm still heading out
