MarkS2 Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 So what have you bought / are receiving for your Westy for Christmas? Looking for ideas really as have some money to spend on mine but am torn, as there are so many upgrades I want! I will be starting with a full geo and some decent pads, but not sure what else...

Lawrie Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 So what have you bought / are receiving for your Westy for Christmas? Looking for ideas really as have about 1k to spend on mine but am torn, as there are so many upgrades I want! I will be starting with a full geo and some decent pads, but not sure what else... I'm pleased it not just me. This year I'm planning on a half hood thing so its more road friendly, but need to change the wing mirrors first (in post). The suspension could do with resetting in the spring, and perhaps some more sticky tyres Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkS2 Posted December 16, 2013 Author Share Posted December 16, 2013 Lol. Half hood is a good shout, something I have not thought about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 The half hood's a cracking piece of kit, been very pleased with mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rory's Dad Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 The half hood's a cracking piece of kit, been very pleased with mine. Don't forget the Soft Bits for Sevens version which has the option of a zipped flap which allows me to get in and out vertically. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
User0083 Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Will be a bit late (mid-late Jan), That's it, car back!!! But has wilwood 4 pots up front Carbon cycle wings TD pro race 1.2 New LED Land Rover lights (stop/tail, indicator, fog and reverse), with clear lenses. And I'm sure other bits...

Norman Verona Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 And that speed limit is strictly enforced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
User0083 Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 And that speed limit is strictly enforced.GOOD!!!I've been in and out of hospital too much as a result of laws not being enforced and people doing what they want! I really enjoy cruising around at 40-60 mph, around coastal routes. So I'm sure I can stick to 40, without an issue and have many great memories of pleasant drives.

MarkS2 Posted December 17, 2013 Author Share Posted December 17, 2013 Great thanks, it always mentions Caterhams for the half hoods am I right presuming this is just the same size / fitment then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rory's Dad Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 No they have a pattern for the RAC type roll bar on a Westfield. They also want a measurement from the roll bar to the windscreen so the fit is perfect. They incorporate the Westfield hood fitment at the front which slots in over the windscreen. Give them a call - they are nice people too (mother and son) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkS2 Posted December 17, 2013 Author Share Posted December 17, 2013 Thanks Martin, will give them a ring then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
