With the clothing, have some where the branding is not so obvious/in your face. Sometimes its nice to wear something a bit more subtle, i.e. black on black printing/embroidery, just a small logo, no logo but a little tab, etc. A sticker for the tin top. Again, subtle but for those in the know to spot you, i.e. not a big "my other car is a Westfield!"... maybe just a small sunrise logo with clear backing? Gloves +1 for garage banner +1 for including random stickers in orders (for putting on tool box, car, laptop, etc.)

Lomo bags with the Westfield logo on them

Since owning this vehicle I have covered approximately 2000 Miles in 3 Years. I have only ever driven it in dry weather. When not in use it is stored in a well ventilated garage under a breathable cover hence the chassis is in very good condition for its age with very little corrosion. The bodywork is painted in RAL 2009 Traffic Orange and is overall In very good condition. There are some minor stress cracks in the grp however for an 18 year old vehicle this is to be expected. Great fun on the road and on the track,and a brilliant specification and condition Westfield for your money . As you can see from above, both the engine and gearbox have been rebuilt and a new clutch recently fitted, therefore these major components should keep the new keeper going for some time without major expenditure (many detailed photos available showing internal components during gearbox rebuild/clutch replacement) Reluctantly selling as I now require a more “practical” car with a roof and luggage space for my planned European road trip. Also Included with the sale is a number of spare parts if required including original mirrors, two spare wishbones etc. Depending on your offer I may also throw in a CTEK battery conditioner, used Halfords Advanced all weather breathable car cover and the remainder of my WSSC subscription (if you don’t already have a subscription) which I have just renewed! Located in Holmes Chapel, Cheshire [SOLD - DEPOSIT TAKEN] (Please note - car will be available from March)

I'm ok for the 17th. Cheers Jim

I'll make yours up in fire proof paper

@Chris Broster - Bristol & Bath AO that doesn't sound good. Ride height/suspension settings are unlikely to fix this. You've either got the wrong wheel offset or too wide a tyre. The attached set-up sheet for the S2000 will give you some idea of typical settings. Car Suspension Set-Up Sheet Honda S2000 widetrack.pdf

Thanks for these replies. I have siliconed up all the gaps for now. I have still to test drive the car, but the air-intake setup looks like it might benefit from a rework.

They should have about 26 ish clicks and will come to a stop either way you adjust them.

Like this but a bit bigger .

I've got one from lidl/aldi. Waterproof and yellow!

I wouldn't immediately dismiss those. In France they can only import older Westfields due to their strict regulations and yours would fit that requirement. And with the language barrier, the written word may come out a little different to what you would expect.

Yeah I've also had a number of 'overseas' timewasters too, wouldn't even bother entertaining. It's a shame as I'm sure there are a genuine few out there

Yep I’ll be in class E, nice to have someone else in it anyone else Terry??

There are several points in this thread in my opinion, the first question about MP's being fit for purpose? Well I would widen that and ask is our system of Government fit for purpose now? In the main I would split MP's into various groups, those who are career politicians, these are the worst, no experience of the real world caught in the Westminster buble from the day they left University. Labour has a lot of these ideology driven but with nothing else to offer. Then we have those who are there because they were expected to be, following on from parents who did the same, some bad some good. Then we have those who have wealth and want to put back into improving the country for the rest of us, they are are experienced and mean well but are caught up in the baffelling archaic methods they use, unable to do things as the system grinds them down. Then we have the stars who are ambitious, surround themselves with good people, capable leaders who other follow, few of these on both sides. Then we have the rest who are a mix of skills but really never do anything well enough but nothing wrong enough. People of quality can make a lot more money on the outside of parliament so getting top class people to do an MP's job is not attractive, ours was a junior manager at Lidl but no one expected him to win, yet he did and his lack of gravitas shows in every way but he will prosper and never be a minister but will find his loyalty rewarded longer term with directorships etc. It is the speed and system of government that is wrong, run by the civil service who are top educated, top intelligence who run rings around ministers. Watch "Yes Minister" now against the backdrop of Brexit and you will see it was a documentary not a comedy show, how delays and problems can be put in such a way until they get what they want. The system of committees is just time wasting, in any other walk of live prevarication on every task is not accepted yet it is expected. Examples like Heathrow expansion , HS2 where we haven't really done anything for years and yet blown millions in doing nothing. We need government to govern, tell us what they want to do, we vote and then they get on and do it. Examples of poor decisions abound, the latest this morning; they gave a contract to a company to provide shipping to clear backlogs in the event of a no deal Brexit to a company who has no ships and has no said they cannot provide ships, you could not make this up and those involved in that from ministers down should be sacked, but they will not. And changing government will not help as they still have to go via the same civil service as they all do.

How about these -

I took the photo from the VC10 support aircraft.. here is the reverse photo a colleague took.

Hi, I'm looking to replace some of the gauges on my XFlow SE with a proper VDO set (see pic below that shows unknown/unbranded existing gauges) as I'm getting a few readings I'm not confident are accurate when the car is running. PARTS REQUIRED VDO oil pressure gauge (5 bar) and matching sender (with warning light) VDO water temp gauge and matching sender - [possibly already sourced but please shout if you have one in case it doesn't come off] VDO fuel gauge and matching sender Let me know what you have and how much you want for it posted. Thanks, Andy
