Got some wheel dollies to give me a bit more room to do any work. Not loads but every inch helps or so I’m told! Quite easy to push around the garage, cage helps.

There was only one car available to nip up to the shops today...

We struggle with high tech stuff like internet in Norfolk!! That's in spite of what the London centric government might have you believe about 5g etc roll outs!!!🤭

Lovely colour

@sebdangerfield on many cars something can be cobbled up from this. My throttle cable is a decent quality bike brake cable with one of the nipples from this kit at the engine end. It has broken twice in 33,000 miles, each time at the pedal nipple, so I regularly check there for any signs of wear. Some people change the inner cable annually to avoid the problem which isn't a bad idea given that they cost very little. Can't help you with the clutch - mine's hydraulic

Welcome to our clubs car meet occurring on Sunday 12th January at The Barge Inn , Battlesbridge SS11 7RE at 09:30- 10:00 ish!! All are welcome, no matter what kitcar you drive! It is a great morning to speak with likeminded petrol heads and kit car enthusiasts about our beloved passions, Westfields.

That’s at least four then !! I haven’t seen any Honda boys or girls yet !!!

Another Sport 250 to play with 🙂

Andy has contacted me via text today too

Hi I Dave, I emailed them over Christmas and he text messaged me Saturday to say their internet is down so struggling to respond to emails at the moment but all is fine👍

Colin McRae, Richard Burns, Malcolm Wilson, Roger Clark. I could go on. Richard Burns died the same day as George Best. Lots of news coverage about Best, a man who died from his self inflicted lifestyle. Given numerous chances, but ultimately killed himself and hardly anything about Richard Burns.

for its Colin McRae and Richard Burns as I watched them a lot with dad in morning on the weekends when I was young and also there PlayStation games mega good lol.

There are a few of them in Bristol, some would say thousands 😁

The other key thing is maintenance..the more you do yourself the more you will understand your car and be able to prevent issues happening.. Throttle and clutch cable are easy to maintain..but also light and easy to carry and possible to change on the roadside..

A true Yorkshireman Marcus 😆

no problem... tap water all round 🤣

Perhaps I shouldn't have told people that Glen would do a full valet on every car each night and @Marcus Barlow - Show and Events Co-ordinator was paying the bar tab each night 😉

Wow, 1 week and 2 days to fill the trip, that's what I call popular, well done Marcus 👋

Hi Marcus, could you add me to the list please.

One place in Tallinn, Estonia that I opted not to visit:

Happy New year everyone and what a great way to start the New year than meeting up with friends. It was great to see everyone and have a chat. Let's hope we have better weather this year to than 2024.

Some new Garage art and it is also the same colour as my Westy.

Few photos from last trackday, was lucky that there was a really good photographer : And saying Hello from Poland to all WSCC Members !!! :

May 1st, 2023 Spend: £0.00 A lovely spring weather evening called for a spontaneous trip with my son and daughter. Pulled over at Althorp estate and got few nice pictures. May 11th, 2023 Spend: £270.00 After I replaced my front wishbones I knew I needed the wheel alignment checked and so I booked it in with Northampton Motorsport. Was very surprised to learn that the car only weighs 680Kg. I expected it to be a lot more given the size of the engine. May 13th, 2023 Spend: £0.00 Attended the Westfield-Chesil factory open day. A great turnout at the new facilities in Bicester. May 23rd, 2023 Spend: £0.00 It's the Annual National Drive your Westfield to Work Day(Week) and as the organiser I obviously had no choice but to visit the office. However, on the way back, about 12 miles before reaching home I noticed my right front cycle wing dancing around. As it turns out, the cycle wing stay had broken off. I managed to limp home and drop the thing off at Precision Welding who has done lots of bits for me in the past May 27th, 2023 Spend: £15.00 Cycle wing stay repaired, painted and fitted again May 28th, 2023 Spend: £0.00 Since having the alignment done, my steering wheel was no longer straight when going in a straight line. But as the boss was tight fitting, I had to fabricate a steering wheel puller. This was my first time using the welder I got for my birthday 2 years ago and after practising a few lines, I was confident enough to start. It's not the prettiest of welds, but it has worked a treat, and the steering wheel is back on straight. Last month: £ 5102.23 This month: £ 285.00 ----------+ Total: £ 5387.23
