You cleaned AND polished it?! I don't think I've cleaned mine more than 4 or 5 times so far. 🤣

 

I was a little embarrassed by how dirty it looked at the Knebworth Classic Car Show, next to the TVR with it's owner proudly giving it a once over with a cloth and spray he just happened to have with him!

We had an amazing morning at Turweston Aerodrome for the inaugural Westfield XI meet up.

 

Four XI's (and one Renault Clio V6) showed up which was a great turnout, given the rarity of this model, and how spread out we all are over the UK.

 

It is amazing that even though there is only one model/ version of the XI, each one clearly stood out as being stamped with its builder's own unique identity.

 

 

In addition, we had current builders, a past builder and two under age apprentices (😃).

 

The weather was very kind to us, with thunderstorms being forecast for after lunch, but not materialising.

 

There was plenty of chit chat and admiring of each others cars (and the food at the cafe was great too).

 

 

 

 

 

We even posed for 'Le Mans race start' to see who could race their car to the cafe first! Sadly the chap on the end (er hmm!!!) didn't get the memo and thought it was a robotic breakdance-off 🤓.

 

 

Here's to the next one 🥳
