  • Been driving the Westfield for the last two weeks solid as someone smashed my Subaru.

    Such fun.

  • Awesome. Always wanted to buy a Caterham/Westfield and try to use it as an everyday car. I'll get round to it one day...

  • Best car I ever owned.

  • 1.5sc. 70's shit brown on the outside and tan mess on the inside. 14k miles from new. bought and sold in mid 90's.
    Was a thing of joy.

  • To this day, I've never seen one in real life! Really starting to NEED to see one now!

  • Seen a few @FOS

    I think it is the angles. Like a fourth dimension on stand over...

  • Then you grovel and weep at a Miura.

    Asking for forgiveness.

  • Tony something? I dicked about with Ginettas (Walklett ones, not Tomlinson), Marcoses and that sort of thing once too. Before I got a boring proper job. :(

  • Saw a really tidy z4 hardtop, coupe?, with some subtle mods, could go for one of those or a similar age s2000, they seem to blow up less than rx8

  • Every single time a Maserati drives past with that crackle/bark/pop-pop-pop/howl exhaust note I really, really want one.

  • Yep, Tony Abrams. Thats my old man. Yeah he dealt with the Walkletts when he was selling G33s and obviously knows Lawerence although actually met him through TVR ownership before he bought Ginetta.

  • Yep Z4 coupe but not the M version. My dad just bought one with a view to being able to use it everyday and go off to the continent when he wants to go on a driving holiday. He loves the idea of it but is finding it difficult to get comfortable in it. He has a problem with BM seats. S2000s are great too but very different. Obviously you have to rev them a fair bit but VTEC is addictive!

  • Yah Bimmer seats are like part of H.R. Gigers prop factory or summat.

  • I had an Accord Type-R bitd. V-TEC was sooo good

  • Definitely one of the best sounding V8s out there. Bellowing is a fair adjective.

    Speaking of which the new Mustang 5.0 motors sound pure evil. No idea what the cars are like but that is a killer lump.

  • Had a quick scout about, reasonable looking ones with 80/110k seem to be around £8k. Can't believe they only made them for 2 years.
    One I saw must have been an m sport. Or a regular one with the wheels, brakes and skirt package.
    Where I live it wouldn't last long before some twat in a yellow corsa stoves both bumpers in though

  • Yep I had a DC2 Integra Type R a few years ago. Such an addictive engine and chassis combo. Would own another one in a heartbeat.

  • Yeah they're pretty reasonable and looking at the prices for good Z3/Z3M's they'll start to rise too. My dads car has some M-Sport bits on it, the seats being one of them.

  • Flat plane crank innit

  • Instant boner

  • It's what makes the Maser sound so good too

  • I think the Miura and the Periscopo are more beautiful, but sometimes you need a spiked bat to the eyeballs and only a later Countach with all the arches and the wing will suffice

  • Moroder stylez?

  • Raise u a Cizeta.
