KeithS Posted July 22, 2018 Posted July 22, 2018 Having driven VWs and Porsches most of my life, have just bought a 1999 SEi with 1600 crossflow on Webers to keep my 2014 Cayman company. It was built back in 1999, but the original owner/builder passed away. His son sold it to a garage owner in Helston, who used it occasionally over an 11 year period, doing few more than a dozen miles each year. Colour (original paintjob) is Peugeot 'Blaze', which is very similar to my previous 911 'hotrod'. Have plenty of questions to ask, but in the meantime, hello from deepest Cornwall! Likes: It's a Wesfield; crossflow on Webers (I'm old school)... Dislikes: 16-inch wheels; the exhaust, which is way to loud... Quote
Geoffrey Carter (Buttercup) Posted July 22, 2018 Posted July 22, 2018 from Scarborough. Smart looking car. I like the colour. Quote
Alan Cutler (Adge) - Dorset AO Posted July 22, 2018 Posted July 22, 2018 from sunny Somerset. That's a striking colour for a Westfield, enjoy. Quote
6carjon Posted July 22, 2018 Posted July 22, 2018 Great colour. Maybe a nice set of old school black steel wheels with centre hub caps or minilites would be good? With a ford hub the world is your veritable..... As for exhaust it might be repackable or you can get a bigger silencer. Fail that get a custom made under floor system exiting at the rear of the car.

TableLeg Posted July 22, 2018 Posted July 22, 2018 @Martin Rice (Sparkymart) - Cornwall AO would be a great person to get in touch with And Welcome. Quote
Gary Taylor Posted July 22, 2018 Posted July 22, 2018 from sunny Scotland, that’s a fabulous looking car and the colour is certainly striking, hope you enjoy her Quote
Sparkymart Posted July 22, 2018 Posted July 22, 2018 from Camborne. that's a lovely looking pair you have there.....! Welcome to the mad house. I've sent you a PM 1 Quote
Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman Posted July 22, 2018 Posted July 22, 2018 Wow, what an amazing colour, really suits the car too. I must confess, I also love the five spoke alloys. You used to be able to get them ina fifteen inch size as well; I did try and find a set while I was building the current car, but they just never seemed to turn up at the right time. If I recall correctly, they were standard in 16” on the SEiGHTs for a while, in particular, the underslung exhaust versions. [/useless Westfield trivia] Quote
