Take this note: Aside from Caterham, Westfield has one of the biggest membership among Lotus clones in England

Most promoted & supported their badge "Westfield" instead of saying it's a "Lotus".
It's really not. I respect the club by not calling their clone a Lotus .
The purist has the bragging right and I will leave them alone.
The Westfield has similar LOG like the Lotus LOG but strickly their own club. I wish we can do the same and not tagalong everytime there is a Lotus event. I'm a bit worried, uneasy & reserved everytime I go to Lotus event.
At the end, no one stopping you to call your clone a "lotus" but as someone said, support your badge & be upfront
not to call it a Lotus 7. Let the enthusiast mind wanders in the seven heaven.
