A guy called Andy Toner used to post on here, he had an S2000 powered Westie. Sounded awesome but he had loads of trouble with setting it up.

Thought about doing it with the Fury build, but Rover V8s are easier (marginally )

mesh covering the exhaust on the side of the westie looks terrible, sounds good popping on the overrun in the gallery video though

i dont have a garage at the mo, when I do I'd seriously consider flogging the S and going down the Westie/Caterham route, have a knowledgeable friend with one as well.

A bit O/T but I'm seriously considering one of them Honda powered Elises next.

Not very sensible financially, but no worse than a TVR. Probably.

Have a garage... and a Caterham too...

It's "only" a 1.4K Supersport but it's quick, with fantastic handling, noisy and great fun...

If you can, do it!
