  1. Gary Sport 250 Barcelona

    Sport 250 2018 with 1750 miles for sale

    Due to brexit and impossibility of 12 month green cards, I have now to sell all my cars which are currently in Barcelona Spain, a westfield, a nomad and a defender. One of these is a factory red Sport 250, which I bought direct from the factory with 200 miles on it. Naturally it has the factory Ford Ecoboost 250 HP engine, and it was warrantied by the factory. It was registered in August 2018 and has had little use due to several factors, none of which have anything to do with the car. I have had a loose cooling pipe and a loose indicator relay, both of which I fixed and other than that all has been well; it goes like a rocket. It has a momo quick release steering wheel, LED headlights and the following spec: Upgrade to limited slip differential Upgrade to wide track wishbones Upgrade to track day shock absorbers Upgrade to Westfield Race front and rear calliper – Upgrade to 205 wide T1R tyres Upgrade to 8” rear wheels Upgrade to FW rear body Upgrade to Sport Turbo seats Upgrade to limited-slip differential Carbon Effect FW stone guard kit> Also a power point / USB port is fitted. Plus clear indicators and a new grille, better for cooling and the "7"... Full doors, half doors and half roof included, plus storage bag for roof. I think it looks great with all the "7" type add ons, but they are all easily removable if not required. As they all say, I am sorry to let it go, but its virtually brand new and someone will get use out of it now that I simply cannot. New this car is around 39,000 pounds from the factory, assembled, mine has only 2000 miles and I am aiming for around 30,000 pounds. It is currently in Barcelona, but I can bring it back for a serious buyer or it can be seen there, or videos sent. thanks gary My whatsapp is 0034607200010 email - stillwanted@gmail.com
  2. Having previously bought the flush mounting Aerocatches (locking) in carbon and realising I need the rear-mounting type (thanks to those who spotted my mistake) does anybody have a good, cheap suppler as I have obviously bought the wrong type? Tar

    Big Head nut/ fixing

    Soon on my to-do list is mounting the front mudguards on my Sport 250, and was thinking of using the Big Head fasteners but ideally wanted the "nut" version. Anybody got any suggestions for a supplier? Thought M5 nuts would be a safer option than the standard M5 bolt's in protecting the tiers and maybe a bit less bending required, but any suggestions welcome?

    Dashboard switches

    I'm just at the stage of fitting my dash and have 1 more item to add which is the Ctek battery charger connector which I'm going to mount on the LH side of the dash, near the edge. Just checking before I fit this, is there any chance this could prove a problem with IVA? I can't imagine it would but though I'd ask the team.

    Heater mounting q

    I've got hold of the diagram for the holes if I were drilling through the scuttle to mount the heater and wiper motor, and Im just wondering if this is supposed to be central in the scuttle? Seen a few builds where to me it looks like it's central, using the wiper holes as a reference, which on mine I've got to drill out. If using the measurements from the diagram the heater is going to interfere with the top of the mouldings. I'm going to use the Big Head m6 flush mountings and a patch of fibreglass for extra reinforcement, but just wanted to make sure I'm not making a dangler-up thinking this is supposed the be dead in the middle?

    Body shell Q

    Ok, so moving forward with my body shell, and have the rear tub slotted into place, as I figured it was a good idea to get an idea of how things fit together etc. Found I had to bend the standard rear spare wheel carrier brackets out of the way with a big screwdriver and a hammer, may take advice I have had to cut them off later,as this is just a dry fit. Thanks I then pulled out the RH side as I want to get the position of the scuttle sorted out, and this seemed the easiest way as from what I can see the rear tub is the datum on the back panel on the rear of the seating compartment. RH side seems an easy fit, apart from it's fouling on the seat-belt (I assume that's what they are for) bolt studs on the back of the chassis. There is a bit of a cut-out pre-formed on the panel which looks like its a bit short, and just needs lengthening? Can anybody tell me if I've got this right, before I commit to making red dust?

    Body shell cutting Q

    Just been working on my scuttle, and can see some cutting in my very near future, and I've never cut this sort of stuff before, so looking for advice on best way and required tool's etc? Already have flat-nose drills so that part is covered its the cut outs I'm worried about. Was wondering is a 1/4 power file would be a good idea as long as you file away from the gel coat.

    Fuel cut-off

    Just been talking to Ian at WF on the fuel cut-off switch, that I had decided NOT to fit as I wondered if this needed the connectors shoring together (had forgotten it had a loop-back plug on already)?, and Ian said it was a requirement for the IVA due to it being a pressurized fuel system for Injection engines. Now fortunately I still have room to fit my switch, it's just a question of the cables/plugs on the Wf loom Just wondering if anybody else has seen this? Any advice gratefully accepted?

    Brake disk paint (Rear)

    Seen a few people with nicely painted disk's and while my front are ventilated and already painted the rear are raw steel. While I know the pads will remove any paint, I'd kind of like to paint the remainder to prevent the rust monster getting a bit on it, any suggestions, or this actually a bad idea?

    Insurance

    Now that my car is starting to look like a car, it occurred to me that I suspect its probably not covered under our household insurance. Has anybody any experience, or suggestion on if its possible to get a policy to cover the car, which as its in-build, as obviously I cant insurer it any normal route it as its not got a registration yet. Appreciate any suggestions or companies that might be able to help?
  12. While sitting waiting for my body kit to be delivered as the couriers van broke down I thought I have a browse around eBay? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2017-WESTFIELD-ROADSTER-Sport-250-Factory-Built-Brand-New/182754138015?hash=item2a8cfed79f:g:K5IAAOSwFdJZtrfK

    Gear shift pattern

    Now don't shoot me for asking what on the face of it is a seemingly stupid question, but what is the shift pattern in my Sport 250's MX5 5 speed gearbox? I've never driven or been in an MX5 and a quick "google" just confused me further as i have no working clutch yet and the nice silver gear-knob for WF is of no help.
  14. Ok team, got some brake and clutch bleeding/filling in my near future, and TBH I've not done any of this since I was about 19, on a knackered yellow Ford Escort Mk1 So I'm after some recommendations on what I need, what makes it easiest etc. Seen a whole bunch of stuff if you Google it, but after what is best/easiest to use, and ideally make it a 1 man operation ?

    Sport 250 Prop shaft

    OK, in trying to help a fellow member today I took a closer look at my prop shaft. Noticed the sticker saying "don't be a nunney and forget to put some Lithium Grease in this Steve", you tool. So as I DON't have a grease gun, let alone the right stuff to put in it, I'm after some suggestions for what I need? I have found the grease nipple in the UJ's at both ends, cleverly hidden in black paint.
  16. My google alerts just popped this up Don't get to excited, IMHO its pretty crap
  17. OK team, a bit more advice please. I'm sitting in the garage with a nice cup of tea, and Jam Steam Sponge pudding looking at how I'm going to mount the fuse boxes and AIM Dash expansion. I going to follow AdgeC's brill idea and mount them on the cross rail just above the drivers feet, but taking his advice on the front of the rail, further away form the scuttle back-line. The bit of aluminium sheet I have is not quite as tall as AdgeC's so I'm thinking I can mount the expansion unit on other side of the steering shaft, but could mount horizontal or vertical. Anybody got any thoughts on this?
  18. Just a quick question for all the builders out there, did anybody bother with the access hole for the gearbox oil access hole? Was spotted by my local club the other weekend when they came around for a look at progress that I have "err missed it" , and I have since asked the factory to have a look at one of there cars, and it appears they are not currently putting an access hole in at all? i had it in my mind to fit a 50 mm blind grommet but, if its not needed might not bother?
  19. Was at the factory today picking up my sport 250 kit (build thread next) and have seen these new lights on there 250 Ian is going to let me know what/where they came from, but think they looked pretty cool

    Sport 250 Ordered

    So on Friday I finally had everything lines up at home with the “Finical controller” to be able to place my order for the Sport 250, made the call and placed my deposit with Simon from Westfield. Was one of the scary moments, committing to this after all the planning over the last 3 months, and all the reading of posts on here, as well as the great support from the local WSCC team run by Robin at the last breakfast meeting at the Red Kite pub. A big thanks to all the guys at breakfast for helping me check in my head what options were the logical choice. Target for the car is really focused on road use, at least to start with, but I really didn’t want to not pick something I later on very much wanted, so the only think that was up for debate was front/rear anti-roll bars, which I think could be fit later on if ever needed. On the options list I have selected: - Powder coated frame - want it to last after all (Standard) Limited slip Diff - seems like a good choice (Yes) Wide Track wishbones - better of grip I assume (Yes) Upgraded to Westfield Race front and Rear callipers - it must stop best it can (Yes) Upgrade to 205 width T1R tyres Upgrade to 8" rear - lot of debate but think the expense worth it (Yes and looks great) Digital Dash - take you comment on being better with modern engines (Yes) Heater kit - wife would kill me and needed with screen for test etc. (Yes) Upgraded FW rear diffuser (Yes) Upgrade to FW rear body (Yes) Carbon effect stone guards (Yes) Sport turbo seats (Yes) Hood and side screen kit for FW Sport 250 body (Yes) The comments in brackets are from Simon to see if these were the better, more common choices. Simon has told me I’m chassis number 24, so this will hopefully be my new lucky number. Now just have to sit and wait for 12 weeks before its ready for pickup, along with 2 more stage payments. Have to say I think I came away with a pretty good deal, so thanks to Westfield and Simon for sticking with me during negotiations back and forth. So next I need to assemble a few odd tools from my Ex father-in law, and some bits from Amazon. Planning to do a build log, is this just posted as a new thread as I can’t see any specific place for it? 14 weeks is going to go so very slow

    Sport 250 Questions

    Sport 250 Questions I’d in the planning stages for a Sport 250 build, and one of the first hurdles is the Option List. I’d like to ask any of the Sport 250 builders what options they had chosen from the list? I’m not really interested in track days at the moment, it’s more of the “I built that” and the pride, and if I’m honest the self-satisfaction of having a new “Man Cave” project to keep me sane. I however would rather take sensible options at the start, rather than “Wish I’d bought that” at a later date. Main use would be fun runs, and weekend once built, plus the odd drive to work to “Show Off” a bit and put the fancy sales people in their place at my office. I’ve got some ideas of my own, however I’d take advice. So would want the heater, hood and stuff that would keep me and the car dry if it rains (I live in Yorkshire, so that does occasionally happen) but plan to do the work myself, as I don’t see the logic of buying a kit and having the factory do the riveting for example. sport-250-options-list-2017.pdf

    Any Sport 250's Going to Stoneleigh?

    Wondered if any sport 250's are taking their owners to Stoneleigh on Sunday? If so, would they be willing for me to admire you? I'm going on Sunday, would be good to meet up with fellow owners, and have a chat. Promise not to mention wiring! Looking forward having a good look at as many Westfields as I can, and meeting some of you "in the flesh".
