Look! Almost Summer!



Bright coloured flowers!


Blue skies and sunshine!


And my chariot awaits!

Nice car!
It's a Westfield, a blatant knock-off of the Colin Chapman-designed Lotus Seven, which first entered production in 1957. They've evolved a lot since then, Caterham bought the right to continue making the Seven, and Westfield ... didn't.
Which resulted in a court case, and Westfield changing sufficient about the design, fibreglass body as opposed to light alloy, for instance, to be able to claim it was no longer a copy.
These days, Westfield have different suspension and engines, you can get them with a screamingly powerful, yet light motorbike engine.
They're reputed, according to my car-racing friends, to be nearly as good as caterhams on the track, but significantly nicer to drive as road cars, because their suspension is more forgiving of the nasty surfaces encountered on the public highways.
i.e., they don't try to leap out of their skins quite so much on encountering a pothole.

Pansies are such lovely little flowers...bright, colourful and happy!

Love the car... nowadays I doubt I'd be able to get out of it, let alone get into it. It's so close to the ground...you wouldn't want to drive over a stump or a speed bump, you'd get a bruise on your rump!

Lee, Ah yes, getting in and out would not be easy now.
