MT75 'boxes are integral, but not MCT75, which is what the factory used to fit to some of the factory built cars. The innards are the same, but the case is an alloy one made for a separate bell housing by Mitchell Cotts who are or were the official reconditioners for Ford 'boxes supplied as reconditioned exchange 'boxes by Ford franchised dealers.2 points

My Westfield came from Hove! Bailey Bros builders principal, Lee Bailey, decided in 2003 that a Dodge Viper was more his thing than a Seven.2 points

I started in the 60s with vinyl Dave and still have them all. Then to CD and also Minidisc. Minidisc was a brilliant format but was shut down by recordable CD which was, and still is, crap. But 10 years or so ago I moved everything to FLAC lossless digital and have never looked back. Ripped all my CDs and recorded my vinyl in real time. Use Squeezebox Touch (long defunct) wireless DACs to receive from a NAS. 4 of them around the house with varying levels of amps and speakers attached. Control it all from my phone. Can also play anything from home via my phone anywhere I am. I still have 2 turntables and a reel to reel tape recorder but they rarely get used. I do miss vinyl album sleeves but not enough to become a vinyl junkie again.1 point

Some cracking pictures there. Thanks for sharing. I think Durex is less controversial than the tobacco sponsorship and, nowadays, the gambling companies.1 point

Welcome aboard! Westfields are excellent for touring. Mine has been to 23 countries so far - and all of those were in the first 3 months of registering it. With a well set up car you can rack up serious miles in them without it tiring you out. Space is naturally a little limited so you have to pack light and smart, but if you're coming from biking I doubt that'll be much of a concern for you!1 point

I'm defo in the 'mine's a tip too' club - though I know where most of the stuff is most of the time. Wish I had painted the walls white when we moved in, too much s**t to move now! It's not all mine though, the left side is commandeered by the missus' car, because (she) "don't do windscreen scraping" - I don't argue because I like being fed. My property back in NZ was a perfect man-land - the 'house' was a self-build barn with three car garage plus workshop downstairs, and a studio flat upstairs, all on 2.7 acres high up on a range that on a clear day you could see two snow-capped volcanoes 150 miles away. If you've wondered where my profile name comes from...1 point
