Going to enjoy summer this year

[wiz 1]

The recent purchase, 1992 Westfield 1.6 cvh xr3 narrow body in Post office red. Had a MINI cooper s now got a regular car and this.
Got a few mods planned - cycle wing conversion and a new set of 13" minators + yoko r21's need these on as soon as George Polley gets them to me, the rides a tad harsh on 16's. Got a new bonnet ordered of westfield as the present ones a bit tatty. The carbs need a good tune so off to Bogg Bros when they can fit me in. Fabulous thing to drive and certainly gets noticed.

Very nice and good choice of colour wiz 1.

Once you get the 13" wheels on you'll really notice the difference.

If it's any help i got my wheels from here.

Looking at 5k for the car and wheel/tyre package but running repairs and modifying start adding to the costs, mind most parts are ford so fairly cheap.Insurance is very good and you only need tax for six months.
Like the mastercard add - priceless!

Finally got a good day to get some pics with the new wheels and cycle wing conversion.



!13's

Looks superb, how have you found the handling now your on 13s ? My westfield is on 15s but have been thinking of changing to 13s.

[wiz 1]

Was running 16's which gave the car a pretty hard ride, changed to 13's and the ride has vastly improved, the yoko's grip pretty well too.
Saved 6kg per corner plus another 20kg losing the spare and jack.




just need the summer to sort itself out now!

Looks mate. Amazing how a set of wheels can change the ride of a car. Enjoy

[Mr MoJo]

Looks great, cycle wings and wheels really make a difference

Nice motor you have there though !

[MrFlibbles]

Looks great!

The cycle wing conversion looks much better, I think the wheels suit it better too
