Popular Post Rob Hunter - Club Secretary Posted May 19, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 19, 2020 I've spotted a bit of criticism about parts from Westfield recently especially around price so thought I should balance the argument a little. Sunday morning I had a cycle wing bracket fail (long story) so needed to order a replacement. After a bit of tinterweb trawling I decided to order from Westfield that afternoon. Amazingly, the part will be delivered this morning, less than 48 hrs later! Yes I could have saved a couple of quid elsewhere, but what fantastic service! Well done Westfield, and thank you! I'll be back on the road by the weekend 👏👏👏 In contrast, the other items (Sikaflex etc) I ordered on Prime, won't be with me until Wednesday.... 12 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Broster - Bristol & Bath AO Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 I'd second that called Parts number on Friday at 5pm and Pat answered bright and sparky even if he is doing night shifts with his new baby boy! After quick chat he had the parts wrapped and paid for - arrived with first post yesterday. Great stuff. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shrops-paul Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 I wonder if they will have another factory open day. I never got to one of the previous ones. Would love to go and have a nosey round. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moving parts stores around, build bays and a few other areas. Not too sure this year, maybe next. 10 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can have a good look around at the cars in various states of build and get advice from the guys. if @Simon Westwood - Westfield Sportscars Ltd breaks out the good China and @Westfield Parts Dept get their silver tongues wagging your wallet might feel a touch lighter when you leave though. 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure the wife will let me take my wallet. I might just get some pocket money for lunch 😄 When I had my Subaru the trick was to get the parts fitted there so when you got home it wasnt with a load of stuff. Mrs was non the wiser then 😄 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
