New seatbelt clips, 3d printed in 3" wide. I will report back if they stop the spare belt strap whipping me. Not that I am against whipping, just not in the face while doing 60😁

🤣 You got your Orange tinted glasses on...

Meet at Quackers 10am for refreshments before heading out for a run around the Peak District. Who is joining us?

Hi all, Recently purchased the Westfield from club member Steve J in north wales. So far i'm happy with the car and will be looking for advice on parts and upgrades soon. Not sure how active the local club is but wouldn't mind joining people on a drive who happen to find them self's in the mid Wales area. Was waiting for a nice day to take it out and get better pictures but i have given up.

Oh, Stacey, bless her! Still haven't got a reply from her till this day lol Oh that's a very good reason to be there early. I have seen now the map and hopefully I will find it, if not I'm very good at asking directions 😀

It’s a no from us ……… you can see why 🤪 have a great day and catch you all soon A&B

Grindlewald, Switzerland to see the North Face of the Eiger. This photo was taken on our walk up the Foulhorn last Monday.

Not the postie, but a great lidl find. Should work a treat for fitting my new button side repeaters

Julie, you just know I can’t resist a challenge 🤣. I really should have better things to do with my time. From a distance they look ok. Up close they look like some of the early work of a hyperactive toddler set loose with a tray of poster paints 🤪

Hey guys, just found this post now. I've gotten myself a private ticket for the event but that was in May and still yet to get a reply from Stacey who was the contact for the space allocation in the ticket. I did also use the KCFCCS24 code when I purchased. It was mentioned somewhere there that I will be able to park in the Area 99. Would that be the case or can I tag along with you guys? I'm from Hertfordshire area since Boftus was asking and nobody was answering from these parts lol

Can't seem to find the option to pm you. I don't mind if I post it in here. If anyone else tries to call please do it on late nights haha Reg N11 DVL 07706940240 Yes I took a screenshot of the ticket to have it on hand so I don't have to look for it when I get there

Big thanks to Troy. Working remotely, he managed to sort out some running issues with my Sport 2000 Duratec. He emailed me comprehensive written instructions on how to tune and balance my ITB’s. Logging on via Team Viewer he made some small adjustments to the Omex ecu. Now running perfectly. Thanks.

@Steve Bosworth 61/2 hours in one hit deserves a medal we always break the journey down and have an overnight stop somewhere just to take the edge off 😵‍💫 hope you have a great day tomorrow showing off your new toy !! Can’t wait to have a look and chat A&B

Oh sweet! I appreciate it. Was looking to try and make it just before 11. Hope to find you guys. Seen now the other reply, yes will try to make it as well for after 10

We may be joining 😁

Hi Vlad We should have plenty of room. You are most welcome on our club stand👍 I aim to get there between 10:15 - 10:30, i think most of the other guys do to. I have attached what we have received, as Martin said. We will be located Circle 6. But you have to drive in from the gates, straight ahead, turn right towrds the house, then right across the front of the house, down the road back towards the entrance.

Hi Jason, lovely looking car & welcome to this fantastic club - mid-Wales there’s a number of members / cars that go to the National Iron Works Oswestry see photo if weather permits Sat 4th Aug - hope to see ya soon Phil R

Hello and welcome from Kent

I'm about as mid wales as you can get.

Try to find someone locally to you who sells second hand rubber gym tiles. Far more solid and also comfortable to kneel on. They cost more but don’t move. Normally plenty for sale on the normal auction sites. Can easily be cut using a hacksaw. I’ve done my garage floor and they don’t move when pulling on or off them.

It's not red, it's dark orange which we all know is even faster 😂 I'm assuming you are north Wales not south?

They can do everything you want and more. But you will think twice about it once you hear the hourly rate...

Hiya, I new here too and really glad I joined the club, the info available is brilliant especially the build diaries if your not too sure how something goes together and there's always advice on hand. Another 👍 for Red

It’s a 2 part journey anyway 😜 Saturday up the coast road via Padstow,Boscastle then fish&chips in Woolacombe, Sunday is the coast road via Lynton/Lynmouth, Porlock (boring going downhill ☹️ more fun going up 🤪) Minehead and Dunster, then waiting till late when everyone is watching a football match for the mad dash home with no traffic 🤞

Sounds fantastic. Count me in!!

Covered my garage with these and the overall result is very good, looks great, comfortable to walk, kneel or lie on. HOWEVER they expand in the heat and bulge up and apart from the dents from my cars tyres they move as I ‘slowly’ drive’ off or on. I will use some adhesive to stop this which is not what I wanted to have to do. Hopefully that will solve the issues. Peter.

But he may sell you a Westfield, you didn't know you needed 😉

Thank you Steve

Yeah and here's me thinking I was hard core driving the Mx5 roof down all year round!

I have a mate of mine who I WhatsAppd this too, she still thinks it's real 😂

Yeah, very true. It's been the same person answering the phone the last few times and also dealing with my parts enquiry, so it appears they have a lot of plates spinning at once. They are always very pleasant on the phone and like I said wish them evey success we all have a vested interest. Better news is my side screens should be here next week or the week after. 🙂

Lidl do loads of good tool/car/garage related stuff. I've bought many items from them over the years, all have been very good quality.

Got mine last week too 👍 Quick visit to Lidl ended up costing a fortune.

Sorry to advise things aren't any better since Jan 2024 at WCL. I tried to order a part on Mon (plastic heel rest- mine's been cracked for years and covering it with Alloy has turned it into a branding iron for my left for on Euroblats!)- The part is £19.99 and the only postage option is UPS at circa £10 which is hefty for a small, light item. I though stuff it, we need to support the new business etc, and went to pay with the paypal option shown and it failed. I got distracted with work etc and went to try again yesterday with the same issue. I therefore called and was pleasantly suprised the phone was promptly answered (Ed, I think was his name), however he couldn't put me through to parts as they were busy packing or something like that. He offered to help and explained the postage charge includes a surcharge for picking and they only use UPS. They don't use Paypal, but haven't been able to get their Webmaster to remove the option from the system. He then advised they can't take my order over the phone due to GDPR issues with card numbers! Hence I had to order via the web shop at circa 9:40am. Ed stayed on the phone at my request as I did it and he confirmed the order. I shortly received payment confirmation by e-mail and at the end of the day UPS advised it was arriving today- This morning, I've had an e-mail update from UPS- So it's not even left WCL yet. I'm glad it's not urgent! update at 16:50, 11-7-2024- Update 09:29 12-7-2024 It look like I will actually get my item! 13:43 12/07/2024 It's arrived and it's the correct part, suitably packed etc. So not as disappointing as others have had, however communication is key and we're all after the Amazon next day delivery service. If the website and subsequent e-mails advised 1-2 days delivery it would be clearer. When you're charged £10 for UPS for a item thats a few hundred grams, you expect next day!

@Craigieboy thanks for posting this - I've also ordered a set. Protex must be wondering what is going on!

To those of us of were not even members when these T shirts were made available, may I be so bold as to suggest a new challenge for non - T shirt owners?. Now taking a T shirt on holiday is nothing unusual , its fantastic to see the club around the word on them though, but an idea of how about taking any calendar on holiday, now that is a more of a challenge because it takes commitment to do that , when was the last time you took your calendar on holiday - never right... Just for folks like me who haven't got a T shirt, this challenge can still run as it is and the calendar one along side?. I'll get my coat if you like, lol...

I would love to come, but unfortunately I’m camping in north wales. maybe next time, have fun .

Afraid knot…boating at mo.. plus car still broken as I’ve not been home to fix it.. have a good one all 👍
