With wider rear tyres and a softer compound all round I feel a <1:02 is doable. My 1:06.7 was not a tidy lap at all! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve (sdh2903) Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 Thought about a 2.0 ecoboost? It's listed on here too so maybe a deal to be done? Got some nice bits on it. But you would need to add a cage. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Westfield-FW-body-2007-factory-bu-il-t/173523808590?hash=item2866d3314e:g:GmUAAOSwJudbbzR7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomS Posted September 27, 2018 Author Share Posted September 27, 2018 Yeah I spoke to the owner a while ago. Seems a nice car but the cage would need mounts welding to it as it doesn't have them on there. And for £15k I'd be looking for a 100% perfect car as that is top dollar!

AdamR Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 Good car, but a bit steep given what Mark Anson sold it for not all that long ago... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stephen W Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 The cage just bolts onto the chassis? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't have the mounting points so needs the cage welding or the points welding I think to bolt the cage to. Either way, it's £15k and needs another £1000-1500 for a cage.

Kingster Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 No you can bolt a cage on without the factory mounting points. @Plays-Kool sell them. Nowhere near £1000-1500 either! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stephen W Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 Like I said bolt one on. 30 min job with 2 people. Yes youll have to drill the chassis just like Westfield would. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes that one. They often do a Group buy around the end of the year with a good saving on that price. You do drill the chassis but loads of owners have done this - so very common. Took a bit more than 30 mins (for me) though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
