Darrell O'Neill Posted March 21, 2014 Posted March 21, 2014 Tim. I agree with what everyone says, great price and minor issues. Don't get hung up on the exhaust cover, in my experience the covers get damned hot too after a good blat and mine used to get hot enough to burn. It's not that difficult getting in and out without risk, my 7yr old does regularly. I'm going to PM you something too. Darrell Quote
Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 Looks good in the pictures, now I can see your exhaust, it's not one from what I can make out that would ever have a cover. WF only made them for the smaller silencers. The larger cans like yours are normally fine with a little care. Quote

SootySport Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 Stay away from the Pipe in front of the silencer though, that's the really Hot bit. Just remind everyone that's a passenger about your Hot bits and not to hold on to the windscreen. I still do everytime I take a passenger. Quote
CornishWesty Posted March 29, 2014 Author Posted March 29, 2014 Got the car home yesterday. 50 miles in pouring rain and so I got very wet and the carpets are soaked. So first job has been to remove the seats to dry out the carpets. My 2 children think it's "awesome" and even SWMBO likes it too, so that's a bonus. Unfortunately the weather is still rubbish down here so haven't had a run out in it today. From my drive yesterday it seems very "mechanical" compared to my previous cars but in good way. Performance is brisk and it is very responsive. Although it's early days, I am very pleased. Thanks for all of your collective wisdom. Tim. Quote
SootySport Posted March 29, 2014 Posted March 29, 2014 Leave the carpets out now, it's a pain keep taking them out to dry. Enjoy your car Tim. Quote

pickmaster Andy Lowe Posted March 30, 2014 Posted March 30, 2014 I drilled a couple of holes in the floor to help clear the water in heavy rain I do live in Wales My daughter loves the school run in the Westie Quote
Darrell O'Neill Posted March 31, 2014 Posted March 31, 2014 I'm glad the deals done Tim. A lot of us run without carpets etc and just brave out the weather. Just take it easy in this weather, they can bite. The dry weather is coming, plenty of time to enjoy the beast... Quote
