Lovely weekend

A little Donington visit today

Westies in the wild!

Gave a clean and wax. She will be living outside for the next few months as the garage has been assigned to the living room furniture. I did suggest the furniture could go under the car cover but i just got the LOOK🤨

What an amazing group we have, less than 24hrs notice and we have a dozen cars out to play! Four of us met up in Swadvegas for a little convoy up the B-Roads. Despite the Factoryheads Cafe saying they were now open on Bank Holidays, we arrived to find them closed 🤦‍♂️ 10 cars had landed in the car park, so we were discussing breakfast options when a new face arrived.... Tim had recently moved to the Loughborough area and had decided to come on his first WSCC meet! Tim's car is a stunning Northampton Motorsport tuned, dry sumped 220+bhp Duratec engined car so plenty quick enough to keep up with the pack. Of course we had to have a drool over it... spot the lovely Nitrons too 😍 We then headed for the circuit proper to indulge in the delights of Garage 39 (the cafe at Donington Park). 2 minutes away we passed Gary in the MEV who turned around and joined us. After a buttie we watched the bikes from the Melbourne Loop for a while before heading for the infield to admire the lines through the Craners and the Old Hairpin (picking up some tips for Wednesday when a few of us are on track 😂). A few of us had to head home for lunch, so the rest if us decided to head for the Mercia Marina for drink. Great to see you all guys, a brilliant way to kill 6 hours of the Bank Holiday! See some of you on Wednesday and again on Saturday at MacG Motorsport 👍

Another great day today!, a couple of showers but nothing major. The international pits are a pleasure to walk around with close access to some precious metal 😎 We had about the same WSCC turnout as yesterday so thank you all who attended and also those who helped set up and breakdown we can’t do it without you all 👍 I bumped into my mate Jezza this aft as well 😅 also got to meet Jodie Kidd who was interviewing Jezza and Ant Antstead with his glorious Redford and very unusual mx5 based Tipo184 😇

Finished installing a rear view mirror in my exige. Due to intercooler rear vis is zero- so electronics come in to play 😁

Big thank you to Marcus and all who helped with the Westfield club pitch. Thanks for making it possible, as without your commitment we would not have even been infield. It's a great event and I know I'll be back again next year.

…Park it next to a Lotus 🤣

Kent monthly meet, loads of cars again for the ride and breakfast. Great turn out

Early days mate, early days 😁

So did the Lotus escape the Yaris's sitting in it's boot ............. nope 😄 😄 😄 Great drive out this morning.

Yes my friend, that's what we got today, 11 degrees, rain and sun, the full menu was ours but it did not dampen our spirits. We got a bit worried as we are not used to this, even @Rob Hunter Derby & Notts AO wasn't casting his usual magic and filling the car park for us today Thankfully some friends came out to play and bought their toys with them, phew. Andy was proud to show off his new purchase, what a wonderful wife you have there Andy, Sue is so understanding that toys are one of the most important parts of living your life, it not just about existing. We lingered at Quackers in the hope that it might stop raining but there comes a time when you just have to go. We set off on our route, the rain got heavier as we passed over the Crowdecote bends and got lighter as we tackled the lanes of Ilam and Dovedale. By the time we got to the very pretty village of Tissington it was dry, with the advantage of being very quiet. Parked at Tissington Hall, unheard of on any Sunday never mind a Bank Holiday, yey hey for the rain keeping the tourists away. The staff were glad to seat us at a table in Herbert's Cafe. The FitzHerbert family have owned the village for over 400 years and they do an excellent job, long may it continue. After lunch it was time for a cake-off. The competition was stiff with Andy Cake Meister round the table but if you would like to judge for yourself by looking at this photo, I think I am the clear winner. Andy tried to hide his poor offering with his hand but to no avail. As expected from such a quality establishment, the cake tasted of cocoa, you know, like they used to, before they made chocolate cakes just taste sweet, it was heavenly. Full length windows in the cafe overlooking the Norman Church, built around 1100. The whole village is a delight with it's duck pond full of fish The weather just kept improving, the sun came out and the tops came off. Ian and Ali in their Westfield with Tissington Hall in the background Andy and Sue in their new toy leaving Tissington Thank you folks for a wonderful day out, it's been a scream. We will do that route again with the roof's off so we can enjoy all the views to their full potential, maybe in the winter when it's a bit drier 😍

Great day Barry indeed. A wet drive home was an understatement lol. I made the mistake of using no roof but its made me a hardened carrot cruncher.🤪

Only you could be in the wrong layby. Was a great day with loads of rain to go with it.

Fantastic turn-out today with 12 cars on parade at Snetterton to support the Speed Series competitors. It was dry for most of the day but a few of our group suffered a wet drive home. I almost made it as the rain only fell when I was less than a mile from home but my thoughtful wife had opened the garage door for me.

Try using What3Words. Identies every piece of earth into 3x3 metre squares. Impossible to get it wrong then really

En route to Snetterton this morning. Meeting up with @Bellyboy and @Bigfoot but unfortunately they were waiting in a different layby to us... 🤣

Hi, first post. Built this car over 20 years ago, sold it after a year, and bought it back last year ! Just spent the last few months sorting out and re-commissioning all the mechanics after not being on the road for the past 17 years. Picture taken this week just before it was taken for a pre MOT check over, and MOT test next week. Looking forward to getting behind the wheel again after all these years ! Barry.

Welcome Chris. Lovely looking car. I too am fairly new to Westfield ownership, fantastic little cars aren’t they!

New to me this week. Totally love it.

Waiting for a phone call.

That's a sad day mate, but glad it's "staying in the family". It's gone to a good home, Lee and son in law Tom will look after it 👍
