Not so recent snap of your Westfield!


Rob Hunter - Club Secretary

Recommended Posts

This weekend was the first in months I haven't been out in the Westfield!

 

Having to get my Westfield fix in other ways, I was having a trawl of the forum and realised it is almost exactly 3 years since I did my first ever WSCC meeting, in the Peaks on 27th October 2019... how time flies...

 

I'd joined the Club at the end of August 2019 and was bored one Sunday morning so just turned up at Matlock on a whim and loved it!

 

Back then I had my first Westfield (a yellow and carbon Zetec car, Q166VOJ).

 

Get some of your throwback photos up for us to enjoy 😉

Isn't that the crew? It does have the same wheels (albeit in a different colour).

For me it started in November 2013 with H178LJA bought from a member here ( @Barnster ).  She was a 2L Zetec in postoffice red

I broke down driving it on the 1st time to work and after 3 months I sold it again :(.  It just wasn't for me...

 

until 2 months later I bought MRX603P on Ebay from a guy up in Newport.  It came with a weedy 1.6L Crossflow which I replaced during my ownership with a 1.8L Zetec.

By the end of my 6 year ownership it looked the way I wanted and the only reason I sold it was to get into my current SEiGHT...

I don't want to but I kinda like the wheels on the yellow one... Especially the dish at the rear!

I dug out some pictures of mine when I had it first time around. When I say pictures, I mean actual printed pictures, these will be from 1994 or thereabouts. A very young, and much slimmer me in one of them.

 

It looks very different now, but I must say I do like it still in its original condition, swept wings and all. Amazingly, all but the last two were taken in the same place as my recent pictures, 28 years later.
