Pretty busy one tonight.

You would have had another only we eventyally moved last Thursday.... all welcome down in Prestatynif you venture out for a run

What a great turnout tonight, we had eleven Westfields in all, thank you to everyone that came!

Damn, sorry to hear that Dan, doesn't sound good. First one here, but an honest to goodness Cheshire and N Staffs meet at the pub is go!

Fantastic, hoping I’ll have time to give mine a quick clean before tonight. Managed to get it down off the ramps last night and the nose and bonnet back on, after it’s impromptu slave cylinder change, on the clutch!

Well car is finally back together so I'm hoping to be there 👍

I'm off up to Knockhill this weekend for Rounds 5&6 of the NSSCC and first time this year its open to the public, although I think all the public tickets are sold out Im hoping to not repeat last years hairpin blunder! Videos will be up next week

Nice one Nick! Will be great to have you out on our runs in a Westy for a change 😁👍

And you Russ, great to see lots of new faces tonight, as well as the regulars!

Great night Dave and it was good to meet you 👍

Looks like a great turnout. Sorry to have missed it.

Ive lost count how many I’ve gone through so far and I’m 51 next week! Whooo hoooo, loads more to go

Well I’m on my third mid-life crisis you young whipper snapper!

Hello all 👍 I’ve just jumped into Westfield ownership with with an R1 engined Megablade. great fun until a water hard pipe rusted through. Doh! I’d like to send the previous owner who built the car a message to ask about the part I require, but I can’t seem to send him a private message on here? Or anyone for that matter. could someone let me know how to do it? Here’s the Westfield!:

As well as here try , Kit Car Blats and Midlands Kit Cars Owners Group both on Facebook ,there’s a Couple of Bike engined cars out your way I believe .👍

Thanks Gary, that’s very helpful! Thanks. That does look the same. Interesting as that’s a 2003 part and my engine is a 2007. might be a little harder to track down as it looks like they’ve discontinued it.

Decals on one side.

A quick look finds this , is it the same ? Might narrow the search on what to ask for at a dealers/ bike breakers https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/192257707843 failing that it may be easier and quicker to cut off the corroded part and get a new piece welded on

Hi Chris. Firstly if you buy one, you won't regret it. Full kit really does mean it, you get everything except fluids, oil fuel ETC. It will come with an Omex ECU which will be fine for ITB's later on. Wide track is down to choice. makes the car look fatter at the front, avoids the wheels hitting the bodywork at full lock and is arguably better on track but it does cost a bit more. As for the Free wheel set up, Not sure. The buttons on the steering wheel probably won't pass IVA as the wheel needs to be padded. Most people have an IVA pass wheel and change to something 'nicer' later. You could wire it in but leave everything behind the dash until needed. Stu

The one thing I'm really good at...

Thanks to Geoffrey and Morgan100 for your help with this I got the one suggested by Morgan100 from eBay for only £17.79 posted (100cm version) and it fits my folded hood perfectly!! It's wide enough that I don't risk breaking the plastic channel which is so fragile. Thanks again!!

Now SOLD

And coming up for two days later and the only side effect was feeling quite tired yesterday afternoon and my arm hurts, but only a little bit. So all in all, round two was definitely easier than round one and whilst round one was noticable, I wasn't reaching for the paracetamol or the nurofen. So all that's left is to hope I am one of the ~90% of people who have good protection going forwards.

Welcome from Somerset! Enjoy!

Bargain for someone!

You have to be a fully paid up member to send a private message ,for the small fee you will get more advice than you know what to do with 😁. Nice car by the way 👍

First meeting for a year or so, and a great turnout. We must be desperate to get out again. 7 Westfields, 1 Cobra, 1 RS Focus, 1 modifyed Corsa and something @Paul Aspdencame in. Sorry, don't know what it is.

I have to confess I was zooming in to the photos to look at the turbo installation as I run a C20XE and if that ever goes bang I fancy giving a turbo a try while trying to keep a high reving engine. Mine is too noisy at the moment for use at some tracks and turbos are magnificent silencers. Also look for motor cycle fairing washers 😀

Started doing this as I have had the bits for ages

Out for a tootle round the Ayrshire coast with my copilot. Obligatory ice cream of course.

Broke lockdown this afternoon, and took the Land Rover on a little expedition.

Doesn't look like I'm going to make it. More blue smoke than you would hope and turned into significant knocking noise and not a lot of oil pressure. Doh. Daniel
