Hi guys, I’m new to the club and look forward to meeting you at your gatherings. I’m located in Frome, just outside of Bath. I collected my first Westfield (Seight) from Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 on Saturday, it’s always been a dream car. Wow, what a machine!! 400 miles of pure joy and excitement 😁

MOT done. Now for some nice weather.

It's back folks!

The roads from East Lothian to the motorways were epic, but once on the motorways it just cruised. I had a smile on my face the entire way 😁 and yes, the sound track is unmistakable. in the traffic jams on the M5 people putting their windows down to hear it burbling away and giving it a thumbs up. It’s always been my dream car and it certainly lives up to expectations 🤩

Welcome from South Derbyshire. That's an epic journey, I bet the V8 sound track made it a bit easier though!

Hey Leo, Welcome to the club and being a fellow - yellow SEight owner - I'm still very much a newbie (June last year!) and I've got to ask? Did you drive it back all the way on M'way???? If so well done cus I still dislike the M6/M5 in mine and avoid like the plague - hope to meet up soon... Bestest Phil R

Hello and welcome!

Porbably because even when they were in production, the 13" Prorace 1.2 wheels where available in 7" rims but not 8" rims, so when I was sprinting I did the same, namely 8" CRX's on the back and 7" Prorace on the front.

Welcome from the Midlands Great car, enjoy!

I would look at CXR's since they are still in production you can get them direct in almost any offset. I have: ET0 on the rears for my CXR's My ProRace 1.2's have. Spacer on them at the back I use my ProRace for the track and CXRs for the road typically ProRace CXR

Welcome. What a first journey! That's more miles than some do in a year!

That’s brilliant 🫶🏼 I only had to travel 50 miles to collect in June 23 after waiting 35 yrs, then I started to worry if it would be a “don’t meet your hero, moment!” How wrong could I have been - I have a permanent Cheshire Cat grin - not even a thunder storm on the M6 toll could remove it.

Welcome from the Bristol team. There are a few of us around the area. We also have 2 WhatsApp groups, one for banter and help and another for blats and track days etc.

Yes, please do let us know how you get on, I thought the other day that I need to add to drive up the A53 road from Leek to Buxton (preferably in that direction) to take in views of The Roaches, a large rock formation above you on your left.

I had the same dilemma, had the 15" TD 1.2's initially. Due to my mahoosive brakes, I went for the Caterham Apollo's in 6" front and 8" rear. I've two sets now (black and silver), not cheap but very light.

Ha! didn't see that. They still have 36 places remaining so I'll make my arrangements. My wife is a keen gardener and likes the arts, there is much to see. Blooms of Bressingham, gardens and steam museum https://www.thebressinghamgardens.com/, Sainsbury's art centre https://www.sainsburycentre.ac.uk/, East Ruston Vicarage Garden https://eastrustonoldvicarage.co.uk/. Good also to take a day boat on the broads https://www.richardsonsboatingholidays.co.uk/norfolk-broads-day-boat-hire/6-seater-electric-day-boat/. Does anyone have any other good ideas?

In a local pub car park while out for lunch this week…

Spotted this on the way home last night, looked it up and it is a CSR260, seems a very nice spec.

Coil packs finally arrived today, so waited for my oldest to finish school, he put them in and we took it for a test drive. It appears to be a successful result, super happy.

There’s one of these in my neighborhood and anyone who’s seen the film Christine will understand why it creeps me out every time I see it go by:
