Back again...update... Well just before Christmas I bit the bullet and bought my first Westfield. Currently wintered in a dehumidified container and looking forward to some dryer weather. It might be a previous member's car (I'm in touch with him on FB) Pretty much the spec I was looking for too. Thinking of some preventative Lanoguard to keep the chassis ship shape...any thoughts on that? Many thanks

A photo taken last fall at a local autocross. It's winter here now and the car is for the most part inside while I work on some front end aero stuff. dave

Well, as I may have mentioned before, email is not my area of expertise. However... The connection via ggr is expected, because the server is on their network and Postfix is the software on the server that routes/redirects our emails. But, it certainly looks like someone is “spoofing" one of our publicly visible email addresses and is using it to try and get access to a user account with a very typical “phishing" type of email. Hence why this ended up in your spam. Good to know your spam filter is working - so just ignore them as these type of emails are used as a scattergun approach to hacking accounts. It goes without saying that you NEVER EVER click on ANY link in an email unless you are absolutely 100% sure that it is genuine.

Had a great day yesterday at the Morgan factory. There’s a large cafe adjacent to the showroom, a shop (not the cheapest, but with some interesting content) and a ‘heritage centre’ all of which can be accessed for free. Charges for factory tour and any Morgan drives, all on their website. All staff were very friendly and helpful. No restrictions on photos. A most enjoyable day. Andy

Hello all, I am not sure how I didn't find this forum a while ago when I purchased my Westfield last year but here I am! I have a 1990 SE across the pond in the US and I am in the process of rebuilding the car to a drivable state. (I'd love to upload an image here but it appears I can only attach images through URL's, what's the proffered method for doing this here?) My Westfield started its life in California with the soul from a first generation Ford Capri as the donor car. It presumably lived this way until the previous owner had unfortunately blown up the old cologne 2.6 that was in it. I believe it has a type 9 5 speed transmission and I can't remember off of the top of my head the specific rear end. In the US there isn't really any aftermarket for the cologne V6s, especially the very rare 2.6L so finding parts to rebuild proved to be quite difficult. At the end of the day I would have a quite heavy 100hp at best boat anchor. This lead me to sell the 2 cologne motors (One was blown up and the other needed machine work done as well) to a very happy first generation capri owner. Now I am planning to go to a BEC route, I am thinking of going the Hayabusa as I presume there might be some existing megabusa parts floating around out there. If not, I know the aftermarket for the busa is quite extensive so its likely that someone else makes what I am looking for besides very Westfield specific parts. I still have a few other projects ahead of the Westfield unfortunately, but I am determined to liquidate some of them to get the cash and time to focus on this for 2026. However I would like to get a head start on the parts list needed to make this project a success, and I have a few questions. One of the main concerns of things I likely wont be able to make myself is the headers, does anyone have a megabusa header lying around that they wouldn't mind parting with? Or know which aftermarket header is most Westfield friendly? Honestly if there is a good place to find the driveshaft items (spline adapter and preffered driveshaft to use as a donor?) I've seen people using E46 driveshafts for this, that would be convenient as between myself and my friends we have a lot of E46 and E36 parts and cars lying around. I also need seats, my car unfortunately came without them. I see someone here has a Tillett B3.5 for sale. Is that something you would recommend for both the driver and passenger? I imagine my fiancé would prefer a more comfort oriented option if possible, however I do imagine that is a tall ask for something like this. I know it'll never be her favorite car lol. Thanks in advance, I'll definitely have more questions after I get off of work. Just figured I'd write something simple on my lunch break after I got the account activation email!

Hello I just acquired a 1992 SEIGHT. I want to restore it to its original condition, and as you can see from the photos, I have a lot of work to do. I don't have any documentation, so I'll often be asking for your help with information on certain parts. See you soon!

Good evening. Thank you for your encouraging messages. I don't know if it's the first one in France, but what's certain is that there are practically none. It's properly registered for road use. I'll be sure to post photos of my project's progress.

An early birthday present arrived for my second set of wheels. Porch carpet still on the 'must replace' list, 5 years after moving in...

Our first Golden Pheasant meet of the year, after bad weather postponed the January meet! Roughly 7pm if your eating, 7.30 pm or so, otherwise.

To wet your appetite and have something to look forward to in these gloomy winter days!! Join us and enjoy 130 miles driving around the spectacular Lake District National Park and 135 miles through the beautiful Yorkshire Dales National Park. There are no timed meeting points during the days, so if you want to stop off for a walk or visit somewhere enroute - the choice is yours to enjoy the areas as you want to. You are at liberty to choose which day to explore the Lakes and which day you explore the Dales. We will split into small groups to make keeping together easier and exploration less stressful - More time to enjoy the views rather than worrying about where the car behind has gone! Last years tour was fully subscribed quickly so early booking is advised once again for this years event. Driving days are Monday 15th and Tuesday 16th June 2026. we'll head off from the hotel at 9am each day. If you're travelling from a far I would recommend that you book accommodation for Sunday, Monday & Tuesday to make the most of the wonderful roads and scenery. Route books will be supplied and Sat Nav routes for single drivers will be available. Base will be Travelodge Kendal Town Centre as it has covered secure parking. Kendal LA9 7FW Phone: 0871 984 6571 There are two Travelodge Hotels in Kendal so please be careful when booking!! Adding breakfast to your booking isn't necessary as you can pay on the day. Many choose last year to have breakfast at Wetherspoons and there was plenty of choice for evening meals in town. We've planned for 20 cars again this year. Who's coming ?? 1. Martin Aldred - Show & Event Co-Ordinator 2. Stuart 3. Andrew B Clarke 4. MGG 5. Glen & Julie Hall 6. Tim & Judith Johnson 7. Robin Parker 8. Ian & Ali 9. Andy & Sue Westwood 10. Glyn Walters 11. Matt Lawrence 12. Tractor Boy Bennett 13. Simon BX19 14. AEG - Andy & Becky 15. Tomaky 16. Lee & Tracey Beech 17. 18. 19. 20.

I’ve no idea why my photos come in upside down, I have rotated 180 and makes no difference! It’s an iPad if it matters? Anyway..finally here after a 2 month wait, AIM had delays on the pdm32 apparently. Hoping to crack on with this now, I’ll start another topic to include the ecu swap. No going back now!

Martin. Can you please add tractor boy Mr Bennett to this event. I’ll try not to offend the locals. HB.

Glad you're coming we need someone who knows the route !!

YES!!! Glen and I are looking forward to it again

Colour change here we come!!!

..well, there are quite a few around. I saw you live in the area and as I am regularly staying in Arabba as a base also with my bike, it would be great to meet. My next visit will be in June timeframe, will drop a personal note by than. My favourite pass still is Mauria with a nice meal afterwards at the Cridola restaurant…

I'll be there.

https://www.donkervoort.com/en/icons/donkervoort-s7-1980/ Given that this 1990 7-type with swept wings and a Crossflow engine and 22k miles on the clock is a mere €95,000 I’d like to announce that The Wench, a 1992 with swept wings, an injected CVH and fewer than 7,000 miles is for sale for a mere €94,000… such a bargain! Form an orderly queue below.

Certainly an image not front recent driving, but better late… This one taken from a photographer in the Dolomites early last September during a long weekend activity. The photographer took this one while we drove up to Passo Giau…

Interested to see how you enjoy your factory tour. Witnessing parts being hand made during the manufacturing process is quite different but also similar to what I am familiar with at Bentley! Morgan focus is on customer specification being open to their colour scheme, both interior and exterior is aligned to Bentley. It is when you see bodywork parts being made, that’s different. Bonnets and spare wheel covers made adjacent to the car in production. Loved seeing that. Andy

I hope she does!!

I've been called many things but Stuart is a first !!

It's Summer in Lakes you best bring an umbrella !

Can't run without you - Your car is the soundtrack to the week end !!

No. 2 space is yours Stuart

Just in case someone is counting who is planning to go - I am!! All booked. Planning to travel up on the Sunday and home on the Wednesday.

Some Essex club members are taking the opportunity to combine a Morgan Factory tour with the Malvern show weekend on Friday May 29th. We've booked the 11am slot (2hour tour) and would love for any other interested members to join us! Here's the tour booking link: https://experience.morgan-motor.com/factory-tours/#booknow

Hi Stuart Sue and myself will be coming again. Hotels booked. Fingers crossed it will be in the Westy this time

Yep, looking forward to it

And I hopefully will be able to And I hopefully will be able to sort satnav files again

Hope to join in, I'll be working on a co-driver/navigator over the weekend.

You’ve already put my name on the list but just to confirm definitely coming and hotel booked.

Yes please. Judith and I are free for those dates, as long as there’s sunshine.

Yes me too

We're going up the day before and staying in Premier Inn Thurs night, let's keep in touch on your plans Ben

I quite fancy this on route, I will try and drum up some interest from the others travelling up too

I have a few, was just looking through parts I have and saw at least 2 sets. PM me to discuss. Nick

Just renewed with the assistance from Ryan Trewren @Howden Insurance - Specialist Vehicle. Excellent service. Fair price, similar to last year. No extra charge for 4000 miles cover (was 3000 miles), agreed value …. Just need to forward some photos which I will do once it’s dry and I can take her out of the garage! Andy

Good Evening Stuart, I've posted a list of 2026 events in the events section including dates and venues. I'll be adding posts for each event over the coming weeks. The Lakes and Dales Tour dates are confirmed as 15th and 16th June and use the same Travel Lodge as last year. Your help as always will be most appreciated and gratefully received.

Thank you to those that made the effort to vote .

Until a few weeks ago I had this on my Rolls:

Hi All. Will do another run of calendars for everyone in this post at the weekend. They can sometimes be delayed, so was just waiting to see if they turned up! Thanks Mat

The Plan! Start June 3rd Nearly 1300 miles. 18 days, 17 overnight stays in order to catch the elusive haggis. Me in my westie and my mate in his Locost seven will undertake the drive from the flat fens in East Anglia and head to the Eastern side of the nc500. We will then head west and back down through the pennines and back home. UPDATE 17 individual hotels or b&bs booked. Must be mad lol

Made it home, part in the dry and then chucked it down for the last third of the trip. What a thrill!! Cheers all...I'm hooked! Speak soon

Because I live there, but the car has been living in the Midlands as it was my father's.

Welcome from bonny Scotland, it's been said before, you bought the correct colour.....

Welcome.. I see another Toybox car Picked mine up just before xmas

Love the car and welcome to the wscc the home of fast cars and wonderfull people

They always send im pizza boxes New hoses for wilwood and Golf calipers

I made one of these for my own car, and have a few spare sets manufactured as back ups. The kit will come with the metalwork needed to make the unit. You would need to make 8 folds, and then bolt the parts together. The folds would depend on the exact measurements of your car. I will send out some instructions to use as guides, but you could customise it further if you wanted to. I can price in fixings if you need however you may wish to use your local supplier. Some additional modifications may be needed to suit your car, but it fits in my SEIW nicely without fuss. The main features are a cubby to put stuff, and the switch panel which can be replaced if you later choose to change the switches, without changing the whole front piece. There's also a small compartment on the top, out of sight to hide things under the dash. I've priced them close to what I paid, I just want them to find a new home! There's a bunch of photos attached to show the parts and the assembly of mine. Hopefully these can be if use to someone! I have 1 full kit in stock, however I have 2 sets that's are missing the side panels, which I can remanufacture if the demand is there or you can make your own. £53 posted or £50 if collected from Hailsham. Hopefully these rambles make sense.. cheers!
