Cheers. I think the 'HOT' exhaust cover should become a Westfield standard (or other words could be put on the heat shield of course...)

Great pics Richard, glad everyone had a good day. Unfortunately I set out in my tin-top for Gaydon this morning and got an engine warning light for my trouble

A very many thanks to the organisers of this event. The venue was amazing, I loved the 'Time Road' that runs around the perimeter of the museum, showing cars in chronological order starting at 1896 and going to the present day. Even the road surface the cars stood on reflected the actual road at that time. The royal cars were great, 2 of which are actually owned by the Queen. The cars were accessible, the displays showing how things work and the historical content was like nowhere else I have been......The steak and mushroom pie with roast potatoes wasn't bad either.

 

The weather was perfect, is it really December tomorrow? I counted 16 Westfields, plus a TVR, Aero 8 and a MX5. I have met loads of people and I can't remember all of your names, but you were all lovely. I did meet a walking Westfield museum though, a guy called Mark (and wife), golly I thought I was just saying hi to another Westfield member until he explained who he was, I feel like I have met Mr Westfield, that really added to my day.

 

Here are my very non-professional pictures, I hope you enjoy them.

 

 

The first 8 to arrive.

 

 

 

Not forgetting other lovelinesses.

 

 

16 at my last count, but there may be more.

Thanks again, can't wait to come back.

Excellent pics indeed Richard (and Julie). I made it 16 Westfields too. Not bad for the last day of November. That bacon and sausage buttie wasn't bad, either.

 

And the Lotus 7 in Julie's pic was on loan from Mrs Nearn - Graham's missus I presume. 1970 vintage and 123hp - seriously quick for those days.

Thanks to all the organisers of this event.

A great day out.

I have driven past the Centre many times and this was my first visit it certainly won't be my last.

Julie you met Mark Stanton. He is Westfield Club heritage!!

[Robin Parker (Red Spider) - Yorkshire AO]

Looks like you had a good day. I went a couple of years ago and was there from opening to closing time and didn't see it all.

My wife spent a lot of time in the "theatre" watching the BMC promotional films while I did the Land Rover experience.

Has the new extension been started yet?
