Nice but not my cup of tea. I'm sure it goes like stink and corners really well but it just looks a little to flimsy for my liking.

I've driven a caterham (Which is pretty simalar to the westfeild) round bruntingthorpe, it was quick but I was always thinking "is it going to be in one peice once my session had finished".

fair point each to their own, the thing i like about it is i dont worry at all when i put my foot down like when i was in the subaru everytime i give it some stick i wondered how long it would last and would i be able to afford the repair if something was to go wrong, if the engine blows in this i know i can just lift it out and drop a new one in...








A cosworth engine perhaps
