We’re coming …… just getting prepared 🤔 for all eventualities 🤣

Due to an increasing Labrador family, and hence the need to have a ‘practical’ 2nd car, I have had to make the painful decision to part with my much-loved Westfield. This is a factory-built car that I bought through Westfield as a 2nd owner. Vehicle registered new in 2001, I purchased in 2003 and it has been with me ever since. Jenvey / Dunnell engine upgrades all undertaken by Noble Motorsports at Chesterfield. Rolling road results (Northampton Motorsport) gave 187 BHP with the original ‘restrictive’ Westfield exhaust manifold fitted; this has since been upgraded to the Dunnell manifold (new BHP and Torque figures unknown!) Mileage is genuine and only 19,672 (full record of all MOT’s, receipts, etc) Most recent MOT undertaken in July ’25 (no advisory’s) along with full wheel alignment geometry checks / adjustments undertaken by Track Torque (Tockwith), along with rear wheel bearing replacements. This car has been meticulously maintained throughout my ownership, as demonstrated by the specification below. The bodywork has some crazing in the fibreglass as you’d expect for a Westfield of this age. Don’t really want to sell, but given I’m going to have to, I’d like it to stay within the WSCC if possible. £12,800 ono The car is located near York. Contact Martin for any enquiries mburge@sky.com Specification - Zetec 1800 engine, supplied new by Westfield Pipercross Air Filter (C603D) Jenvey Throttle bodies Dunnell Inlet Manifolds Dunnell Gas Flowed Cylinder Head Kent Cams Vernier Cam Pulleys Dunnell ZRV Camshafts ARP Rod Bolts Odyssey AGM Battery Magnecor HT Leads FSE Power Boost Valve Dunnell RMP 1960 4:1 Exhaust Manifold (non CAT) Wunnoff Repackable Exhaust Silencer Raceline Shallow Sump Gaz adjustable Monotube Dampers and Springs MBE Mappable ECU Engine Management Shift light (set @6800 rpm) 15” Team Dynamics Alloys with Toyo R888’s Ferodo Fast Road / Race Brake Pads all round Ducted nosecone Upgraded 4” Headlights Carbon effect Cycle Wings Carbon effect Stone Guards Carbon effect Rear Light Set Lockable Boot Westfield bespoke Fuel Tank with integral ‘Swirl Pot’ VDO Gauges Car will be supplied with – Original Westfield exhaust system (Integral CAT in silencer) Sidescreens, Roof Frame and Roof (I’ve only used twice) Internal Car Cover Original Westfield Dampers and springs Spare Wheel (never used), along with carrier.

Thats not good news.. glad you did not do more damage to yourself or your bike... hope you are back on track soon...

It could be arranged 😂😂😂

I am ok. Nothing broken (including my bike, not sure how), I’m extremely black and blue though. Hit a concrete lined ditch at 35mph plus. Had there been a car coming the other way I think the outcome would’ve been very different. Haha, on this occasion I think you’ll find he copied me! 🤪

@ianali he got lost in Bewdley last weekend 🫣

That's a shame mate, hope you are ok!

You may well not be even slightly interested 😂 but if you fancy an Italian beauty give me an email hughtranter1000@gmail.com

Sorry can't make this one I shall be at the Clipper round the world race start event

If you need cheering up or fancy a little chuckle, have a watch of this.... I have absolutely no idea why but it definitely made me think of kit car life 😂

Lack of use forces my reluctant sale of my Westie. LONG MOT UNTIL JULY 2026. 2001 KIT BODY WITH A LOVELY FORD 1600 CVH ENGINE RUNNING TWIN WEBER CARBS. CARBS RECENTLY REBUILT AND NEW EXHAUST A YEAR AGO. 4 GOOD TOYO PROXES. ALWAYS GARAGED SIDE SCREENS AND WIND DEFLECTORS INCLUDED. LARGE ORIGINAL BUILD FILE AND A BOX OF SPARES ETC INCLUDED. DRIVES AS A WESTIE SHOULD!! LOOKING FOR £6,500 BUT MORE THAN OPEN TO SENSIBLE OFFERS. ANY QUESTIONS WILL DO MY BEST TO ANSWER. PLEASE SEE FOLLOWING PICS. (some not right way up, but you get the idea!)

I’m new here so hello from Staffordshire. I am selling a 2022 Moto Guzzi 850 v7 stone to fund or part fund a Westie, it is black in colour so a disappointment to Flying Carrot Steve 😂 It is in very good condition and is always garaged, it has done less than 2000 miles from new and when I bought it less than a year ago I immediately fitted the best tyres possible ( Bridgestone battlax B46 ) and German made Hepco and Becker engine protection bars. I have two other bikes so I have only done a few hundred miles since buying it. It has 65 bhp but it’s party trick is its arm wrenching torque, the 850 V twin pulls like the proverbial train and always gets attention when parked up or fuelling, and the shaft drive is a real benefit. Although I don’t use it enough , it’s a beautiful bike that I’m very fond of and wouldn’t normally consider selling but I have caught a Westie infection 😂 which necessitates a potential sale. if anyone is interested please let me know, cheers Hugh

Thanks Stuart. It compounds my confusion as the original colour of 'The Prisoner' S2 has always seemed much darker than mine. At least we got the nosecone right, that's original Lotus LO7.😗

Oohhh what else can we blame on you !!!!! 🤪

Go for it! 👍

Feeling risky, this event is ON, fingers crossed for the weather. if it rains now you can blame me 🤣🫣😘

Glad to hear you're ok .. I don't know if it's an age thing but I find I have more fun on my gravel bike than my road bikes these days ...

Hope you're not too badly hurt mate? Were you trying to copy Chris Froome? 😬

Is it orange by any chance? 😂🙄🙄

Sorry for the radio silence guys (work got in the way). Thank you all so much for all the responses, really appreciated. Plenty of options there for me to consider now. I'm not going to be able to make the Curborough event this Friday I'm afraid, but it does sound appealing having watched a few videos. I will look out for future events.

Looks like you’ll need an automatic 👍

If you can measure the diameter of the bar, then they will be able to get it spot on for you.

Looks great how much longer should the straps be? Did you provide them dimensions? Mines an FW I assume it would be the same sizes as yours? Thanks

No water left in the canals, so we might as well drive up. See you Sunday 👍

Your not flying their plane in are you?

This cracking little tool kit from (spit) Halfords. Nice and thin to fit behind a seat and room for some extras like fuses and more zip ties.

We'll will be there weather permitting 😁 and that our daughter and boyfriend aren't to late getting back from Sri Lanka 🤞

Already on marketplace 🤣

When buying my first motorsport safe helmet for the Westfield, I aske in the shop what the difference, aero aids aside was between bike and car helmets. Their answer was that they're designed for very different types of accident; bike helmets were designed to protect you if you came off, hit your head against the ground, or a vehicle, and then slid, with abrasion resistance being part of it. Whilst car helmets were designed to protect your head from bouncing off the roll cage - a potentially much higher psi impact force, because of the way smaller contact area, along with a cage being brutally unforgiving against something like your head. There was also a big difference in fire protection, again, with bikers expecting to have to survive being thrown clear, whilst car drivers would be strapped in until they could extricate themselves/be extracted. That said, for just aeroscreened road use, if buying again, without having a cage, because I wear glasses, I'd probably go for a flip front helmet, which AFAIK, are only available in bike helmets?

This is the general idea 😂

Not able to make this one, hope it stays dry for you Andy

My hill start was better though @aeg🤣

A no from me, I'm afraid, Though hopefully might be able to get some work done on the car in the morning instead.

@Hugh Tranter Hope you can make it? I can't sadly, as I'm double booked.

Sadly can’t make this anymore. I came off my road bike on a descent whilst in Spain over the bank holiday weekend……
