  2. MOT today and the car passed, after an arduous engine swap and subsequent emissions issues. Blew it up 21/6/24, fresh MOT today 13/4/26. I am immensely relieved. Victory lap:

  3. We’ve been staying in Bakewell for the last week with a relative, and today had a walk along the Monsal trail from Monsal Head to Hassop Station Cafe where we had lunch. Along the way, I spotted a sign to the famous Quackers cafe, a regular haunt for the Peak District gang. We didn’t stop there, although I checked for any Westies in the car park as we went by. The views were very nice from the viaduct, the tunnel was fun and the weather kind. We saw three rather chunky looking buggies which I quite fancied a go in, and a Jag with excellent number plate in town. Maybe one day I will trailer the car up here and enjoy some of the wonderful roads myself. Almost forgot to mention, having been a committed Bakewell Tart man for years, we discovered the more authentic Bakewell Pudding this trip. It is dangerously delicious I can tell you!!

  4. Thanks all that turned up. We met at hunstanton for breakfast. 9 in total turned up and then off to Cromer for lunch. Then off to a restaurant 40 miles away after that. 153 miles of spirited driving. Others did loads more. Well done.

  6. What an amazing day! Thank you @Martyn Vann - Warwickshire AO for organising. Really enjoyed seeing you all and the Vulcan too. The Vulcan volunteers were Incredibly informative. Could have chatted to the ex-Vulcan pilot all day. I can’t believe the small size of the cockpit. Those instruments looked incredibly simple for the job the Vulcan had to perform. Andy bomb bay

  8. Outstanding day, very informative, very hands on, with lots of friendly knowledgeable volunteers. Well organised and terrific value for money, would thoroughly recommend to anyone. The chance to go into the cockpit and chat with a veteran Vulcan pilot was a huge bonus. Thank you to @Martyn Vann - Warwickshire AO for organising and the club for subsidising it for the members. A memorable day out, looking forward to see the many photos posted!

  11. Twas not a complaint, merely an observation that when I joined this ‘cult’ I was under the impression that it was a car club, not a hiking club.

  13. Well after 6 years of probably wanting to sell this car, and a painful divorce looming I'm not sure i can carry on looking at this in my garage anymore, my heart is broken and i think its time someone else started to enjoy this car for what it was built for, just not sure that's me anymore. Spec is huge, to much to list in full, its been upgraded & upgraded for as many years as i could finance, probably the only VEMS efi car in the UK currently, so pretty much a one off, possibly around 330bhp but never been checked, certainly goes and sounds like a true car should, not for the faint hearted or sunday driver types, true adrenalin drive on the seat of your pants type stuff. 1997 "R" reg, built from new car parts, so was a new reg & not "Q", every receipt from new. Thousands of pictures, documents, information to go with the car, every spare part i have also. Its been the love of my life, a passion, sleepless nights, long work shifts and bl**** hard work, but something i wanted to do. Only serious offers above £14500, I've had a certified valuation done on the car and no tests drives unless you are serious. Current MOT test would be included in the sale, and i will take some better pictures once i have time & the sun is out.

  18. Pair of external rear view mirrors with mountings. Were on the windscreen pillars of my SEi using existing centre screws. Not to be confused with Rover 100 mirrors, defo not the same thing! I’ve added convex blind spot mirrors to them and they provided good visibility on both sides, but as they are only stuck on with adhesive tape, they can be removed fairly easily if you prefer. They are quite secure and don’t shake about while driving. £25.00 for the pair in a box with bubble wrap and rather poor penmanship address labelling. POSTAGE NOT INCLUDED. I will advise and provide options and costs, and you can choose which one to use. Alternatively, you can arrange your own collection by courier; collect it from me in deepest, darkest Warwickshire; meet me at a Warwickshire area meet or Stoneleigh or Malvern (weather permitting); or you can send your tame carrier gannet to fly them to you (other options are available but unlikely). PM me if interested. CAUTION: Kindly do not try to pull my plonker with a cheeky bid like, “I’ll take them if you throw in free P & P”, or a lower bid. I’m a grumpy old man with forum admin powers and a well-earned reputation for boardroom mischief and shenanigans, as many in here will attest to their cost when they attempted to wind me up in the past. What’s more, I like doing it. The price is fixed. If no one buys them, I may well fit them to one of my dogs. Not that it will help them, but it will amuse me for a short period. Thanks for reading this far. I can’t imagine you have any questions pertaining to the mirrors, but you might. I’m going back to my red wine now.

  20. Final details for this trip on Saturday 18th April. PAYMENT The WSCC has agreed to part fund this visit for members and their immediate family, therefore the cost will be £10 per person, payable on the day. I have had confirmation that payments can be made by card or cash. TIMINGS We are required to be there at 1.15pm, for the 1.30pm visit start. It is expected to last for approximately 2.5 hours, with the group photo towards the end of the visit. LUNCH It is my intention to arrive sometime around 11.15 to 11.30am in order to grab an early lunch/late breakfast prior to the visit. You are free to arrive just in time for the visit or join us at the Touchdown Cafe. However, the cafe can be very busy, so there may be delays for food and the cafe parking may be difficult, as it is not very big and is usually full of cars and motorcycles. PARKING The location of the Vulcan is at South Warwickshire Flying School, Loxley Lane, Wellesbourne, Mountford Aerodrome, Warwick CV35 9EU. On arrival, turn right to park on the grass area as shown below. There is plenty of parking there and we are allowed to park there in the morning whilst we walk down to the cafe, also shown below. Hopefully I've covered all the things you need to know, but if you have any questions, please message me. Look forward to seeing you all there.

  27. Dear WSCC Member, We’re very proud that the WSCC Stand has been the biggest and best at the Malvern show (and formerly Stoneleigh) for many years. However, this is heavily reliant on the kind and generous volunteers who give up some time to provide the great service on the stand. Here’s some of the roles you may be asked to help with- Support Parking so all the cars are neatly parked Support Members area so visiting members have somewhere safe and secure to store Helmets and personal effects without having to carry them around the show Support the Auto Jumble Support members refreshment stand. Support club merchandise area Meet and greet visitors We’re only looking for a few hours of your time each day. Don't worry, if you've not volunteered before. we will ensure all new volunteers will be buddied up with an experienced member for all roles. To volunteer please click here for further information- How to volunteer If you’ve got any questions you’d like to ask before signing up, please write to showteam@wscc.co.uk We would like to put on a very special display of Westfield Cars through the 40 years inside the marquee and are looking for cars of significance. If you have a prelit, an XI, an XTR , a speed series competition car, one of the few all carbon FW cars , a Westfield or any other seven style car with a difference that you would like to exhibit, please drop a message with details of your car to showteam@wscc.co.uk Many thanks, Your WSCC Team.
