funny enough a mozzy past me on Thursday, coming back from my mates, an old bloke was driving it.
also a 20 year + old Ferrari past me going to his too. I think it was a Ferrari 288, that was on the country road.

I followed an odd car out of the fuel station yesterday, he only put in a tenner of petrol lol. It looked really old, like 1950s style but was on a new style R reg (97/98). 2 seater and didn't appear to have a roof at all, just poppers so you could put one over the seats/dash when you weren't driving.

Whatever it was took forever to pull away but then shot away from me like a rocket, so guessing it was something with an oldschool turbo!...until we got to a steep hill where diesel torque prevailed anyway. lol

Wish I'd written down the reg now, didn't recognise it as any 'common' make either. Confused

Oh dear, just google imaged Westerfield as a typo....really don't do that! Confused

Doesn't look like a Westfield or Caterham from a quick search though.

There was a company (Banham) that did a kit to turn a Mini into a Sprite lookalike...so that could have been on a 98 plate.

Just had a look, the top pic on google looks similar and even the same colour as well. I reckon that's what it was! Smile Had never even heard of that before.
