Recommended Posts

Didn't mean to... went to get some milk, thought take the Westy (no doors no roof no heater) between showers only be 5 minutes...

Erm after a half hours getting distracted driving down country lanes (still no milk!) the heavens opened - still loved it!!!

Came back cold wet but very happy!!

SORNing is for wimps!!

Oh and had to go out in the tintop to get the milk!

Go aeroscreen for the full effect!

 

~freezing, with goggles (no hat!) instead of a lid is best described "an experience".  :d

I used mine in all weathers, Birmingham to South Devon every weekend.

On the 2013 calander there's my car on December... Mar 2012 had a gorgeous, fresh morning, so left hood/doors off. Then when I finished my 13hour shift, a foot of snow!!! I had to find the fattest nurse that would fit in my car, offer her a lift home and hope she gave me traction!

Was like driving through a pinball game!!!cars bouncing off each other all around me, cars driving along pavements and bouncing off curbs. I took the correct "softly softly, catchy monkey" approach. Using 2nd gear and no accelerator pedal, just careful clutch work, to get me home.

SORN is for skin flints! Hahahaha

Only reason mine has ever been sorned is because the chassis snapped in two

You never know when we might get a warm dry day

So keep it taxed!

I'm going to pick my Westy up from the factory on Monday, having had the new MSA roll bar and half hood with doors fitted.

 

I'm even half-hoping for (a bit) of rain so I can try it out!

half hood

Went out Thursday afternoon in lovely sunshine :)

After about 10 mile onto of the moors about 1000' above sea level it rained

No roof, doors, heater or screen my dog went for cover down the footwell ???

10 miles from home the sun came out again!!!!!

But 57 miles of smiles covered :);):)

ACE
