Westfield Seight, V8, 2022 registered -
Flying Carrot Steve replied to Jenko's topic in Westfields for Sale
I think those V8s are not as heavy as people imagine either. I bet there's not a lot in it compared to say my turbo Zetec, what with all the turbo and extra gubbins you need. - Today

Have a chat with Tim, Adrian. He'll take you out in his. Torque is amazing and it corners as well as any other Westie. His is on Nitron's all round. So handles really well. Plus the sound is awesome 😁
-
What about cornering and handling i drive a megablade which is super nimble to drive and manoeuvre from left to right i can imagine a v8 to be more sluggish with a heavy engine even with updated suspension to match
-
It seems bonkers that you can buy an epic Westy like this and have enough money left over to also buy a lovely baby Aston to keep it company, for less than the price of even the cheapest new Westy! This is amazing value for money. Good luck with the sale
-
No problems steve thank you for the offer but i' ve whatsapp and called so he will see that on his phone he must be busy with work .
-
Ive had many parts from ash! Quality carbon! The guy knows his stuff!
-
They are unbelievable fun..and also very nice to drive, the power is almost instant even at low revs…..yes, it’s basically the same engine all be it slightly more bhp. Typically TVR ‘over egged’ their power claims!…

I've never been in a V8 Westie, in fact I don't think I've ever seen or heard one running, I bet they are great fun! Is this basically the same 4.0 V8 they put in TVR Chimaeras and Griffiths? -
I can message him a reminder direct if you like Ash?

Not sure if @Carl Warren sold this?

Enjoy it @Paul Hurdsfield - Joint Manchester AO, if we get 40th anniversary shirts all records are erased and you’ll have to start all over again with the new shirt! 😂 -

Today we set out on a road trip, en route we stumbled across this place, so continuing my pilgrimage to motorsport venues across the world here goes😎

A road trip in New Zealand
Paul Hurdsfield - Joint Manchester AO posted a topic in Places to Visit and Road Trips
We picked up our hire car this morning and headed north, En route i spotted signs for this place, it wasn’t planned honest 😉 it was 30$ each to get in Margaret wasn’t really interested (she’s followed me round loads of car museums) so I said I’ll go in you wait out there in the sun I’ll only be 5 minutes, the young lady at the desk said it’s ok it’s free today, she must have taken pity on two little old folks😂 so in we went, Margaret lasted 5 mins, I lasted quite a bit longer.

Do I need large fire extinguisher when I turn kill switch ON ? I’m not sure right now if was a smart idea to convert a simple, reliable operating track-only Westfield with just a few wires, no handbrake, no horn, no proper indicators, nobproper lights, fog reverse ligjts, etc.into a road-legal car… but I’m pushing ahead anyway

Welcome back..great to have a returning member
-
Welcome back @Richard.C it’s good to have a narrow back on the road - or at least soon to be back on the road! Make sure you start a rebuild thread and post up photos of your progress. Ask as many questions as you need to, we’re here to help! There’s a possibility of a club 40th anniversary parade lap for our Westfields next year at the Silverstone Festival in the summer, so a good incentive to get it done before then!

Mine had been off the road for 14 years and it's taken a fair bit to get it working properly again. I didn't do a full rebuild but it's taken a while. Great to hear another early car is back on here.

Getting this in early, one for next year. Kit Cars and Modified at the Motorist, Saturday 14th March, 2026. Could be cold!

Welcome back!

I've found from bitter experience that it's death to these projects to have them too far from your house.
