Thanks for such a warm welcome everyone, great to see how much of a community feel there is on the forums. 

 

Quick rundown of the car, it's got a 2l Blacktop Zetec with OMEX ECU and throttle bodies on an MT75 gearbox, with Team Dynamics wheels.  Part of the attraction to this model was that it's pretty close to what I was looking for, so while there's currently no immediate plans for changing anything on it, I'm sure that upgrade-itis isn't too far away.  I took delivery of it just before heading back to see family for Christmas so currently don't have any other photos, but will make sure to head out in the new year to get some proper glamour shots of it

 

I'll be looking to take part on some track days, but having never been on one before it's a slightly daunting prospect, are there some which are more newbie friendly, or will other members be happy to give some advice and show the ropes to a beginner?  Sadly I'm not around for the January or February Thames Valley meets, but have put March in the calendar so look forward to seeing you there Steve!

The Thames Valley boys like to go to Abingdon for trackdays, safe open airfield with not much to hit.   Keep in touch with them and the Trackday forum.  In the meantime,  keep driving the Westfield to familiarise yourself with its awesome power.

One big tip, as you have a black car use your headlights during the day, our cars are invisible to many road users.

Happy Blatting as we say.
