Tony L Posted December 12, 2004 Posted December 12, 2004 I have gone over to the dark side! After 5 years of Westy ownership I have gone over to the dark side and bought a Caterham HPC! My Westy sold on Ebay last week for what I thought was a reasonable price given the current market and time of year; the new owner collected it on Thursday. He has himself a great car! I will still visit you guys on here though!! There are some pictures of my new and old car on my website if you are interested! http://mysite.wanadoo-members.co.uk/jtccc Quote
Blatman Posted December 12, 2004 Posted December 12, 2004 Always had a soft spot for HPC's Looks nice. Traitor Quote
markcoopers Posted December 12, 2004 Posted December 12, 2004 Good luck Tony, I've been using your Megajolt info, so thanks for helping me even though you didn't know it. MArk Quote
stu999 Posted December 12, 2004 Posted December 12, 2004 At least it has got a decent engine... Enjoy Tony! Quote
Jed Posted December 13, 2004 Posted December 13, 2004 I have gone over to the dark side! Seeing as you've picked my favourite paint job on a C, you are forgiven. Quote
Man On The Clapham Omnibus Posted December 13, 2004 Posted December 13, 2004 Oldman said he was going over to the Dark Side and he's not been heard of since. Beware the Caterham Triangle btw where is Oldman? Quote
Matt Seabrook Posted December 13, 2004 Posted December 13, 2004 MattMe thinks Tony L is from the dark side No, I am a Westy owner of 5 years…. Just interested in views given walkerm’s research into costs and build times. I guess he will also be factoring other criteria into the equation before making a decision, as we all do. .. Dark side? Tony Seem that there may have been an element of truth to my first suggestion then Oh good luck with the new car Quote
adhawkins Posted December 13, 2004 Posted December 13, 2004 btw where is Oldman? You haven't noticed the similarity between his and Mad Lon's recent postings then? Hint...re-arrange the letters 'm-a-d l-o-n' to make another irreverant poster's name... Andy Quote
Man On The Clapham Omnibus Posted December 13, 2004 Posted December 13, 2004 Oh sh*t what's he up to? Second childhood or what! I'm too thick by half obviously. Quote
wrightster Posted December 13, 2004 Posted December 13, 2004 nice caterham , any chance of an honest comaparison once you are used to it ? Quote
SteveRST Posted December 13, 2004 Posted December 13, 2004 Looks lovely! Yes, let us know how they compare. I guess it will take a fairly long time to know your new VX Caterham as well as you'd have known your Westy. It would be interesting to hear how you are finding it though. BTW, what does HPC stand for? steve Quote
Blatman Posted December 13, 2004 Posted December 13, 2004 High Performance Car/Caterham or something... Quote
Man On The Clapham Omnibus Posted December 13, 2004 Posted December 13, 2004 That's a bit Japanese isn't it? Like Honda CRV Comfortable Runabout Vehicle. [puke] Quote
