Norman Verona Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 When I bought the car it started raining so they fitted the hood on when I was in the car. When we got to Sheffield I crawled out and across the pavement on all fours. The hood never ever went back on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iain m Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 I was wondering when a vid would appear, I dread to think what would happed to the hood at speed, is it fixed to anything, I am over 6ft and can limbo in the odd occasion I have been caught in the rain. I saw a big bloke unclip the drivers side screen clip, get in and refix from the inside, cheating but effective. :d Is it easier to get in one side than the other????Brilliant, is this typical C******m talk. .

pistonbroke Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 There isnt a dignified way and your always going to look a complete to55er whenever you pull into the petrol station and crawl out on your hands & knees Pot holing lessons might help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Welly Jen Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Oddly enough, caving is something I do a lot of. Definitely made getting in and out of the Westy with the hood up easier. If you have a passenger too, then you invariably have to get them ensconced first before contorting yourself in to the car. Never tried to drive the Westfield wearing a skirt. Doubt it is possible to get in or out without flashing my knickers, but then I'm not that elegant at the best of times. Remember a program on telly years ago about a posh Swiss finishing school, where they were taught how to get in and out of a Lotus Elise with a bit of decorum. Maybe we could get them over to Stoneleigh to run a Westfield clambering course! Jenny Now the car has no hood, so just jump in and slip down in to the seat. Easy!
