went with tombs to a westfield day at bruntingthorpe 2day and was blown away by the performance..so much so that im now thinking of selling the S4 and getting 1..OH MY GOD!!!!!!!! what a bloody rush..went round in a mazda mx5 derived westfield and im so hooked.. am i mad or is this normal..

Big step to go from an S4 to a westfield. Don't rush into it IMO, as you said to me n clive, your S4 is your pride and joy.

Perfectly normal, you will be hard pushed to get the level of performance they offer for the money. Other than two wheels that is.
But then would you want to travel to Yorkshire on the M1 in one? Keep the S4 and have a "toy car" as well.

Was there any of the twin bike engined ones there?? 300bhp+

i didnt see any twin engine cars but there was a few single bike engine 1's.. i think a toy car would be the answer really..
but what power to weight ratio..i need a test drive on the rd to see what there like day 2 day and in traffic..

A Westfield isn't an only car. My brother tried a Caterham 7 for an only car, didn't last long.

i have other things to drive and it would be the only car for me to have fun in..a toy car is really the answer here so i guess i better get saving..

I had an early westfield SEi with a push rod kent engine, and used it as an every day car for 4 years, clocking up 75,000 miles!!!
Towards the end of my ownership i had lightened the car to the extent that it had no windscreen, no doors, no spare wheel and no passenger seat.
The roof is an absolute no brainer, and is pretty much pointless addition to the car,..virtually impossible to get into the car with it on, and it lets water as much water as it keeps out, hence mine was ditched. Tonneau, however is a must and will keep you warm in the winter!!
You'll get loads of strange looks especially in the winter when its snowing. I used to get home from long winter drives and break the ice off my coat.
Massive fun, if you can get on with the elements.

It does remind me my dad Willys, no heating, no doors, great fun. It was made in 1944.........

your dads willy was made in 1944..

I guess that'll make him 62 then

Talking of Willy's .....here is the man trying on a Westfield for size!
