Petemac Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Mine loves it and has driven it a few times, however on the way to Stoneleigh last year she threw up in the passenger side big style, when we got to the car show I told her to go and get some water, she said to me will it make me feel better? I replied NO IT F@@@@@G WON'T but it will clean the car, I think that upset her a little for some reason. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lyonspride Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 There's an image thing with these cars and most women are very image concious (sorry ladies, but it's true)..... SO throw them into something like this and all they're really thinking about is how silly they may or may not look. Not to mention the mess it makes of their hair Most people don't really know what to think when they see one, but if someone famous/popular was seen in one, then I think they'd be a lot more keen on getting into the passenger seat. My missus can take it or leave it, she's said I brake too hard, but I think that's because she can't stop herself sliding forward in the seat (need a footrest).

stephenh Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Mrs H is just sad that my car is now so much a sprint car that it isn't suitable to go on long blats, which she used to love when we first had the car, despite it always having had no carpet and only a windscreen! She enjoys it on track as well, as long as it isn't at racing speeds. when we last went on track days she said that the sighting laps were fast enough for her. She also enjoyed driving it in the Anglesey parade laps although she needed 3 thick foam cushions to be able to reach the pedals and see over the screen!! All in all, not bad for a pensioner bird.

jeff oakley Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 My wife has always been supportive of my hobby and does go out in the cars we have had and has helped to build them. A week in France in a narrow bodied one is a cosy trip. She see's it as an investment and protection if truth be known. Whilst I am messing with the cars I am not out, making a fool of myself, chasing women to rub up against in some sort of last chance to act young, so it is much cheaper than a divorce (especially for me) and let's face it there is no chance of pulling in a Westfield.

Nemesis Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 It was all the wife's idea....... (I remember now.......I wanted a bike) I rarely get to go anywhere without her, and as it's a right noisy hooligan she's learned not to try shouting things like goodness me Slow down...... she just glares and I get the message, I reckon we've done 4k miles this year.

Matta Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 My wife absolutely hates going in the Westy. Took her for a run when I got my first one (slowly, honest!) and she didn't speak to me for the rest of the day (quite nice actually... ). However, my youngest daughter (now 16) really loves the car and when she was younger used to fall asleep on the way back from blats!
