    Saw a Westfield SEiGHT on the Ferry to France yesterday. Normally I wouldnt be interested in 7 based kitcars but this Westy sounded a beaut because they use a V8 (Rover V8 i think, it said in Autocar a couple of issues back but I cant be bothered to look). Also with it was a Lotus Elise Mk1 but they dont sound great and arent hugely rare .. still look great and handle like a Dragonfly (Never use Go-kart to explain the handling of a vehicle or you shall be proven wrong when someone swaps your Lotti for a Kart!)

    someone at my school (some of the people there are VERY VERY rich) just gave thier 17 year old a brand new condition Viper GTS with a Hennessey spoiler......i hope thats the only hennessey thing on that car, otherwise thats REALLY not fair (couldnt see if it had air splitters, or anything else)

    I went for a drive last night, and this white Jetta Mk3 flew by me. Full Wings-West kit. Ugly side graphics. Except for the lack of wing, it was an exact replica of the F&F car. Truly ugly. At least he could keep up in the corners...

    Wow, that's RHD !! Do you knwo the owner ? Who did the conversion ??

    France is full of these small car, small engine for youngsters.
    IIRC you can drive from the age of 15 in these things.
    BUT, I thought they were only ever made LHD.
    I'm intrigued............
