Interested in this too! Just saw 'taffia' and realised can't be far away from me. Think an Aries will qualify? Haha

Shropshire area meets aren't fussy on what car you've got.
Just don't expect to go to any of there trackdays,as it states in red ink 'lotus7 and Caterham cars only' on the booking forms.

I have a Caterham but am not blessed with a bottomless wallet like many Caterham owners. Been made to feel very unwelcome at some meetings since I
have a Zetec fitted instead of a mega powerful Duratec or K series.
Don't bother with them now except for parking on the stand at Stoneleigh.

I belong to a Lotus 7 club in my area, but only allowed to play nicely. My old B+ dutton is welcome as an associate, and as a car fabricator welder my
skills are welcome. Do get the odd Tweed jacket, flat cap type, who try to look down the purist nose at my humble kit. Quickly put right by others who
say genuine Lotus 7 was a cheapo car as well. Caterham and Westfield drivers seem a bit odd to me but most of the crossflow guys are great.

Personally I dont like them, wouldn't let me join their track tay at Llandow as I didn't have a genuine copy ?????? But later emailed me
saying I would be welcome if they couldn't raise the numbers. I politely told them to stick it !
I spent a lot of money on booze, birds and fast cars. The rest I just squandered.

Wow! They really that bad! What difference does it make what kit you drive on the day. You could live in a castle and drive to work in a chauffeured
Bentley for all they know. What utter wallopers (though I'll serve my judgement till I go to one… lol)

I'm a member of the club and have a Caterham.....like all clubs there are some great members and some not so great......
I know a few members that also have Westfields.....so it's not all bad.....
Me... I've had a Dutton, MK Indy, Westfield and two Caterhams....I enjoyed them all.
