Hello from a Bristol Newbie

Good evening all, 

Having been lurking for years and a member since earlier this year, I have finally completed the circle and bought my first Westfield. Many thanks to all those that have answered my questions online or gave me 5 minutes to answer a newbie question at Stoneleigh this year, it all helped...

I collected my car on Thursday and went straight on to Blyton for a Westfield Trackday Experience (booked by family before I decided to buy). After a great session on track I set off for the 200 miles home, loving the slower, scenic Fosse Way! 

So what did I get, I know you guys like a photo - see below....

 

2012 SEiW SDV BRG with a 1.8 Zetec Black Top on Jenvey ITB and MBE ecu. It has some other nice bits under the bonnet that I am working my way through to a) Identify and b) Understand what they do - Please be patient with my What is This? Questions.

i am not planning any massive upgrades soon, rather use it and learn it’s ins and outs before splashing any (more) money it's way! 

Oh yes and get out and meet some fellow owners too!

Hello from a fellow Bristol owner.  Nice to see such a clean car, it is so clean you could mistake it  for a Caterham ;)

Oh yes, impromptu Rolling road today and the lovely blast down to in-laws in Yeovil chasing the sun! What Westys are made for.
