CraigHew Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 @4 WAK Here you go John, looks quite nice and potentially a bargain. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Westfield-Mega-S2000-/162477335259? Craig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrustyjust Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Good find Craig. Another for the list @IanK Weird how fussy he was with the dash and he didnt even paint and clean the engine ! Looks decent enough with a few tinker things needed , like rear stone guards gaps on the side panels etc. As for bargain, it doesnt state his reserve as yet.

Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Quite an impressive weight for a car with lardy seats etc. But certainly one to have a look at, If in the market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That fussy with the dash that he's not got a valid oil pressure reading on his Dash2 Doesn't appear to have a heat shield between the exhaust manifold and the brake/clutch reservoirs either!

Steve (sdh2903) Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 That weight is surely over optimistically light? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even @Tom (T3OMF) - Cotswolds AO carbon fibre product demo vehicle's not that light yet! What was the kerb weight of your car at IVA Steve? Mine was 647KG with a full tank of fuel.

Steve (sdh2903) Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 630kg with full tank. That's with Jk's and carbon wings. I reckon with screen removal and a bit more weight loss I might just be able to see 600. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 My last car with aeroscreen, no heater and various lighter bits, like battery, and slightly lighter seats, plus mutch lighter engine and gearbox was 585 kg. that weight takes some serious work to achieve with heavier engines and gearboxes, hence my sarcastic comment previously. None the less, it doesn't look too bad a car, I'd just be taking the description of items with a pinch of salt, and want to be checking everything for myself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Kinder (Bagpuss) - Joint Peak District AO Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Hi @Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - WSCC AO Rep When someone gets the weight so hugely wrong, I then begin to doubt all other aspects! As we both know the Mega S2000 is a rapid car even when north of 600kgs, so there's no need to fib to assist a sale. It could be a genuine error. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, I regard every piece of info as needing double checking. It shouldn't necessarily rule out a car, and may even be a genuine slip up, but it may not... Hence the double checking.

Tom Frankland (T3OMF) Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Mine weighs 601kg with the cage, without me in it, oh and about 1/4 tank of fuel As it stands in this photo So, I would say he's a bit over optimistic or he had a jack under the car when it was weighed 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
