jimbobtcc206 Posted November 11, 2017 Author Posted November 11, 2017 @Geoffrey (Buttercup) - North Yorkshire AO Yes it’s a real gem. I wanted it as soon as I saw it was for sale. It’s a credit to all its previous owners. Quote
Kingster Posted November 11, 2017 Posted November 11, 2017 Boghouse Blue is a cracking car. I have told John he was mad to sell it but he has a hankering for an S2000 Westy I think. You will not be disappointed with it Quote

I have told John he was mad to sell it but he has a hankering for an S2000 Westy I think. You will not be disappointed with it Oh dear. As much as I do love my S2000 Westfield, I regularly miss the XE powered, which was built at the same time as Scott Beeland built the Bog House, and I know from many conversations at the time, the spec, way back then was very similar. A standard Mega S2000 will feel quite flat by comparison. (Very similar bhp, way less torque than the Boghouse, and much heavier, in an equivalent spec). Jim however has got a fantastic car, a really good old school Westfield with one of the classic late eighties/early nineties Motorsport engine’s. 1 Quote

W Shep Posted November 11, 2017 Posted November 11, 2017 Hi Jimbobtcc, First of all congratulations on securing ownership of THE Boghouse. I owned it before John and had 8 years of great fun and many miles from that car, If you get half of what I had from it then you'll do ok . Hopefully see you around. 1 Quote
