Silverstone photos - Saturday afternoon

Well done Barry for organising the trip to Snetterton even if I found out why they call them bucket seats on the way home.

…Park it next to a Lotus 🤣

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🤨

A very warm Welcome to another narrow...also fitted with a mighty X-Flow? Looks great and in the best colour too..... Are you East or West Dorset - I'm on the Hants / Dorset border near the Coast. Mart.

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.

A little Donington visit today

Westies in the wild!

Thanks again @Julie Hall - WSCC AO Representative for another great day despite the weather trying to spoil it. Great to see @ianali and catch up. We're still giggling about the jacuzzi and the Matey🤣 The route was fabulous and would be even better in dry weather. Julie's slice of cake was massive compared to mine. Sorry @AndrewBClarke but I'm a fine weather driver in the Westy especially when Sue's in the car🤣 Though we had the roof down on the way home as the sun showed it's face.

Looks like that @Andy Westwood is always driving the wrong car. Big nunney. 🤪. Is he scared of a little tincy bit of water?? And he lost the cake challenge!!

Fantastic day and I reckon the rain just added to the fun. Ali and me love the runs over the Peak areas. What’s a little rain when you’re out laughing with friends. Thanks for the invite Julie & Glen and great to see Andy&Sue again, lovely (3rd) car you have there mate! Been a day of laughter. Just brilliant. Now I’m off to wash the muck off the car before the odour of cows… leaches into the walls.

Pleased you had a good time. I’m in Diggle, Saddleworth in the worst B&B possible. Thinking of moving on. It’s only one night otherwise we would. Pretty sure other, more fussy, members of our party will turn on their heals and find a better place to stay. If money wasn’t an issue so would we……

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 😍

Bit of aerodynamic testing this evening, checking how the airflow escapes after passing through the cooling package.

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.

After finding and purchasing a Westfield Way quicker than I expected I had no where to keep it and a garage was needed ! Now Wendy is tucked up in her new Garage I couldn't be happier ..... Now I need to go shopping for some racking and nice bits and pieces to make it a real Man cave !
