If you have any questions please message us either on here or email to parts@westfield-sportscars.co.uk Many thanks WSC Parts Dept

Proper fitment of the (used) SBFS half hood. It’s designed for an MSA rollbar, so was a bit of a punt. It actually fits quite nicely with the roof struts up, just needed to add some poppers to the rear tensioning straps, so they could attach to the poppers on the bodywork…

You are never alone when you have an orange Westfield. My new mantra 😂

Stop giving them ideas...

This Government will tax breathing if possible.

I recorded Rachel Reeves on TV a few days ago when she announced measures for charging tax for electric cars based on mileage. As a multi-car, low-mileage driver I have been preaching this for many, many years and I think it's inevitable one day. For me it's just plain wrong that because my Jag is classed as high polluting I must pay a higher tax than others. My car only pollutes IF I use it, over one recent MOT to MOT year, I did just over 700 miles and paid almost £800 road tax, more than £1 per mile in just road tax alone! So how then does my 700 miles in a 5.0 V8 Jag cause more pollution than say someone doing 12,000 miles in a normal 2 litre petrol car? It's an absolute nonsense in my view. Basing it on mileage is the only fair way I think. So, here is word for word (I have the video) is what Rachel Reeves said..... "Because all cars contribute to the wear and tear on our roads, I will ensure that drivers are taxed according to how much they drive and not just by the type of car they use" That right there, applies to us lads and lasses! It also applies to my Jag and most low use vehicles. We should be behind any campaign for this, at least for out kit car usage IMHO. Yes I'm biased but I also believe in fair play.

I still believe vehicle licence should all be on fuel and not Car TAX, we all know this is just TAX and nothing to do with enviromental reasons My own fleet... Westfield, which does ~2k miles in 6 months costing £~180 which works out 9p per mile or 40p per leter VW camper, which does ~2k miles in 6 months costing £~180 which works out 9p per mile or 73p Per leter Tintop bmw 16K miles £165 per year. 1p per mile or 11p per leter I can't justify taxing the Camper or westfield thoughout the year for maybe the odd drive out in the winter. So they are Sorn 6 months of the year. I can't drive more than one car at once! so the more cars I have the less each one will do yes more revenue for the government I know there's Electric cars but i'd be suprised if something could nto be written into the software to create a pay per mile. Or app.. or black box....

Probably be like a pension as you get nearer the government will move the goal post further away

I guess we really have done it now. Collected today and really pleased after a 60 mile journey along all kinds of roads. Deaf in one ear, blind in one eye, forgot to take my hat and my driving glasses, but we came home doorless and topless (ooh, err) even with a light sprinkle of rain. Chuffed to bits, now it’s time to learn the ways of it. Expect many questions, but for now bask in the glory of our yellow ray of sunshine ☀️

Great success! Lift is in and working and the Spitfire fits a treat, although it seems to be p*ssing petrol straight out of one carb 🙄 I need to move a scaffold pole that was used for hanging stuff off and then I can get it about another 18” higher. Certainly more than enough room for the Westfield to live on bottom bunk, I will have to protect it from golden showers though 😂
