Before and after yesterday

Playing “chase the Maclaren” - or perhaps he was chasing me! 😁

They have got to catch us first.

I have been in social isolation for a week now.... tomorrow its supposed to be dry and I will be enjoying my own company inside my Westy - I cant wait! Do you think they will stop us going out for a blat?

Now sold and left for its new home in Surrey. I hope you enjoy your new car and the drive home Mark thanks to everyone for your comments about the car (and the video Scott). I’m still planning to hang out on the forum so I’m not going anywhere just yet. Now to get on and finish those two build threads

Could be handy in the Corona apocalypse

I've put a route together, basically meet in leeds at 9.30am to leave at 10 on Saturday morning, Fox and Grapes York Road (A64) LS15 4NJ Drive north through the dales, to include Buttertubs pass and calling at the Highest pub in uk for lunch (Tan Hill Inn). From here we carry on north west onto the Lakes passing through Pooley Bridge. Over night stay at the Castle Inn hotel in Bassenthwaite ( don't forget your swimming costume). Sunday we leave after Breakfast and head south over the 3 passes, Whinlatter, Honister then the Kirkstone pass. This will be more of a steady sightseeing route with stops for photos etc. Still heading south we enter Coniston, where we will stop for lunch at the Coniston Inn (Formerly the Waterhead Hotel0. After lunch carry on south, eventually crossing the M6 and heading home Via the A65 towards Skipton. Round about a 300 mile round trip. Please book your own hotel room. The Castle Inn, Bassenthwaite (Best Western 03330034087 or Via website) I can send out the route to anyone that wants it for their sat nav. Nearer the time i will email out the menus on request so i can forward on your choices for the lunch stops. This gathering will also be put up on the NWKCOG forum.

@Barnsley John you forgot flat battery (mine) good job @Robin (Red Spider) - Yorkshire AO Was still there to give me a shove 💪 and I’ve managed to fit one of the stickers looking good thanks @Barnsley John😎 Quite liking the green now!

Sorry to see it gone but keep the build threads up mate

You need to present for IVA with the smoked perspex piece not fitted, else it will be classed as a windscreen and they will require windscreen and a demister. I put rubber edging strip on the fibre glass part.

Agreed it's looking likely however the team will carry on until we're told otherwise.

Any colour GRP can be painted any colour, it’s all in the prep (and to a certain extent choice/quality of materials, when it comes down to longevity etc) Once any part is primed, they’re all primer coloured, after all!

Practicing for a Mini-Rifle competition.

Me too! (photo copyright of Javelin Trackdays. )

Obviously I’ve been really busy... In the Westy obviously. Not totally mad 😜

I’d have to become way more gregarious than I’m comfortable with to comply with self isolation!

have a great day @Robin (Red Spider) - Yorkshire AO

Happy birthday Robin from Glen and Julie xxx

Don't forget some pics for us Jude

Extend the 2 reds and attach them into the supplies at the fuses A3 & A4 then you only need to redo the spade connectors at the fuse. that’s how my Westfield wired one was done

With some yellow pin stripes down the bonnet??

On reflection, Navy Blue and Yellow isn't a bad combination. Or is it?

Cheers Iain PM received, will fire across details when I get back home. Regards, Brads

Go on then..... PM inbound!

Chin up Jude. Take the car out, that will help. Bit of wind in your hair. More importantly focus on seeing your grandson again, that will make the wait worth while. I’ve just got one and he is a joy. Now five months old.

Thanks Ian K - I wasn't aware of that regarding smoked element of the screen. A few more pictures now the screen is off of the car...

Happy Birthday Robin from me n Debs

Could be Image RM3’s. https://www.imagewheels.co.uk/rm3-alloy-wheel/

Absolutely, I have both intermittent sciatica and permanent damage at C4/5 with trapped nerves etc, so I know just how debilitating it can be, even without any sort of major or catastrophic injury. On the plus side, when it’s bad, my Westfield is often the least stressful vehicle to drive as far as my back/neck are concerned, so it can be done!

Selling my very low mileage XTR2, the car has done approx 3200 miles, it’s a 2002 model from new. It is road registered and has a mot on it. The engine was fully serviced and checked over by Rob at mistral developments and no issues were found. The engine is the standard hayabusa lump. According to the literature these weigh in at 440kg making the power to weight ratio very high, with the added downforce which you don’t get with a standard car it makes this into a very rapid car. The previous owner had this car for 14 years and only done around 500 miles in it! reverse box has been removed at some point. They are a waste of time! i bought this car on a whim to use as a track day car, I did not sit in it before purchase which was my mistake! I am not the smallest of guys and my body doesn’t quite fit in the car comfortably, lots of leg room but not enough shoulder room for my mere 17st frame! condition wise is very good, would need about £500 spent on it to make perfect. I bought it to use as a road legal track day car which is what it’s best at! not many of these around now, especially road registered ones! trailer not included £18000.00 NOW £16000.00 for a quick sale, note the wheels will be changed for a different set. collection from Benfleet Essex Tel 07879 404747, if I don’t answer send a text and I will get back to you ASAP regards stuart

The Committee is looking into this.

MHR Robin 🎉

Enjoy the rest of your day Robin!

I don’t know your track driving experience, but I’d soften it off a lot...makes it much more Progressive at the limit.

Or get one of the roll up mats used at gym or camping..and cut to suit etc Or maybe make a moulded seat insert..bin liner plus expanding foam..light and perfectly formed...and cheap..

You have until the end of the month to get the early bird tickets with infield pass, after March its a lot dearer for two people and you cannot bring your car in. Live music confirmed. https://www.silverstoneclassic.com/livemusic Racing all weekend. https://www.silverstoneclassic.com/motor-racing If you can think of a car then it will probably be there. https://www.silverstoneclassic.com/clubs What you waiting for......

Kruger national park...watching these ladies out for their Saturday night takeaway (Impala)......7pm There appeared to be only three of them involved.. then after the hunt failed, 12 of them popped up in various bushes.(sneaky) Well worth a visit

First wash of the year.

Damn you and your sneaky ways! There's me, innocently phoning up to pay for my AP Master cylinder, and some how you've tempted me into ordering a new tonneau cover for the FW Honda!! I'm just easily led!!!

I have recently been looking for a crock of gold. 😎 (this morning with a little pal)

Feeling like an expectant father... MOT... the view from my office! update... pass although it did leak coolant on his floor... just one jubilee clip loose... Roll on summer! Might leave it a month before taxing it again.
