Westfield Boardroom Truisms

[Captain Colonial]

Well done, you lot!   (Although I'm leaving the personal ones out, funny as they are, for health reasons - mine!)  I've amended a couple suggestions slightly for comedy effect.

So far:

WBT #1: Any thread that is started where the author requests an opinion as to whether or not something they do or have done voluntarily is right or wrong, will end with the author concluding they were right, no matter how strongly the majority who gave said requested opinion disagree with the author's point of view.

WBT #2: Any thread where the author states they are looking to purchase a tintop and then lists the cars they are willing to consider, will end after considerable debate, further models not on the list being suggested, and the author buying something utterly different from anything discussed or not purchasing a car after all and sticking with their current transport.

WBT #3: Any thread that is more than two pages long ends with a subject totally different to the subject that started the thread.

WBT #4: If a thread asks for a serious opinion, it will not recieve it... moreover, if the word "serious" apears in the title, it is open season for silly answers.

WBT #5: When asking if Option A or B is the better, the answer will always be that Options C to Z are infinitely superior (depending on the respondent's deep-seated fears and prejudices).

WBT #6: Whatever the subject, no matter how well thought out and reasoned the subject matter is, someone will take the diametrically opposed view, just to be contrary.

WBT #7: Threads that start, "I can not PM someone" because they are not WSCC members may not end well.

WBT #8: Threads that start, "What's my car worth?" almost certainly will not end well.

Keep them coming!

Threads including references to dashboard instrument arrangement can only end in one place

SPOT ON..... what happens to all these part finished kits.... must be dozens out there that "havnt been finished"..... or then half way through the build thread you get  "I passed my IVA today" ? ? ?

If your going to ask owners what their cars weigh make sure you have enough beers in the fridge and popcorn in the microwave before the first Duratec owner replies.

If you, (presumably with the knowledge that you're mechanically incompetent, cack-handed, or just not interested in the oily side of things) make the simple mistake of asking about good garages/mechanics for Westfield related service work, prepare to duck and cover as the outrage at not "doing it yourself, it's easy" pours forth.    

Interestingly, this seems to be the reverse of Blatchat

If you ask how to lose weight on ya motor, it will cause an argument

2 more WBT's on the same subject below :-

1. In a bulk buy thread for every 10 people that initially say yes that's a good idea only 1 commits financially.

2. Only 1 in 20 bulk buy threads go through to completion because of the WBT above.

P.S. Have you seen the Soft Bits For Sevens Half Hood Bulk Buy ?

Ok I'm pushing it as I've ordered one and we need to get the numbers back up.

Threads asking which is best Zetec or VX only end in strong opinions no concensus

In any thread that mentions driving a Westfield in poor weather conditions, those who don't will only say that those who do are "mental", and those who do drive in poor weather may only refer to everyone else as "wimps".

Boardroom members that have been here long enough will, often take great delight at shoe-horning certain pictures of Blatter's into a thread; in particular, Blatter's gets a push, Blatter's gets a ticket and the ever popular, and often self inflicted - Blatter's opens a branch a branch of Millet's in the boot box of his Westfield.

Whatever the problem and no matter how many solutions are offered, they never come back and tell us what was the final solution was. You are just left hanging.
