Fernando Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 Morning, I am a new member to the club, I got my Westfield Sei narrow body 1.6 crossflow engine last June 2021. Firs of all, apologise for my English, I am from Spain and I live here so even the distance I think is very useful joining this club as its very impressive the amount of technical information here. I am not a mechanic, I am engineer therefore I am sure I will need assistance from all of you, and I would like to try to do my self all I am able to do. This car has been in spain since 2000, I bought from a Catalonian guy , therefore the plate with B (Barcelona). I had been looking ofr a westfield during a couple of years, however all cars I found were left right driver position, and this was the only one with right drive drive within budget that I could afford. The car has a few things to improve like the brake pedals, rear brakes , in fact it failed pass the ITV (Spanish MOT), so this would be my first topic. Here you have some pictures of the car. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard (OldStager) Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 Welcome @Fernando, firstly your English is infinately better than some our our English members ( no names mentioned ) and secondly it's great to see another Crossflow powered car in the club, not only that but one with swept wings 👍. Looking forward to trying to answer your questions, and you won't find a better place to find answers. Oh and there is no such thing as a daft question, just daft answers .... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
