Popular Post itsagoodalife Posted July 31, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted July 31, 2023 After finding and purchasing a Westfield Way quicker than I expected I had no where to keep it and a garage was needed ! Now Wendy is tucked up in her new Garage I couldn't be happier ..... Now I need to go shopping for some racking and nice bits and pieces to make it a real Man cave ! 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrzej Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 Evening ride after checking and tightening rear suspension bolts - both upper wishbones had little loose nuts (? Previously tightened as manuał says torques... Maybe worth use some loccite on those or nodlock washers ? Is this common issue in upper rear wishbones on Westfield ? Also rear diff mount was losse) Anyway what a joy after 2 weeks on holliday 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hardly anyone around and the one guy that was, understood the memo kindly pulling in....why does this not happen more often😐 Yep exactly. Really annoying when a car or van in front of you can see you want to get by but just doesn't bother to indicate, slow and stay left especially when there are multiple kits behind it. I guess it's only petrolheads that know to do that. Personally if there's something nice and fast behind me I can't wait to watch and hear them go by! I've even noticed lately an element of drivers who get deliberately awkward when they see cars like ours. They wouldn't act like that with a motorbike! Happened to a mate of mine I was convoying with last week, some idiot in a BMW was in the wrong lane and got real nasty using his car as a weapon basically. More reason to run a camera on the car when on the road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, but deliberately, or unthinkingly being a mobile chicane seems to be a very British thing. And with Westfields, (I can’t speak for other kits, but they’re probably similar), it’s a more recent thing too. You do still, generally get treated with more courtesy/thought/consideration than a mainstream manufactures performance car. But it’s not as common as it used to be, even just ten years ago. On the continent, in particular Austria, Germany, France and Italy it couldn’t be more different. (Though you will meet dickheads everywhere). We’ve had traffic on dual carriage ways wave us (a group of four) out from fuel stops for instance, that has resulted in them actually stopping to let the last one or two of us out. This sort of thought and approach to driving is far from a one off, either. Two things in particular seem common. When seeing a group obviously traveling together, more instances of people waiting or waving you through. And particularly in the Germanic countries, an attitude of let faster vehicles through, this doesn’t necessarily mean performance cars, just those wishing to travel at a higher speed than you. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MR.C Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 The car driver in front owes you nothing. If they let you pass, great. If they don't its their choice. On a motorbike, its not a problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrzej Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 Wow! no aquaplanning ??(second picture? is MK not Westfield ) I have never drove on such amount of water in Westfield, smaller pudddles makes me feel like car starts to disconnect from road (road drive, road regular tyres not semislicks) , i think thats because it so lightweight, but there - a looot of water! wow! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
