Westfield Sports Cars have gone into Administration

[Lee1980]

Yes, paid in full and I'd already sent the itemised PayPal receipt with an explanation of what I've already received and what I'm still waiting for.

I also explained that I had talked to Jase a couple of weeks ago so I know some bits were in stock, but I told Jase to hold off sending the parts to me until everything was in stock.

 

I'll try again with the administrators...

A sorry state of affairs.

What if Toybox could carry some of the line here? Seems like a decent oppurtunity for him?

Please all stop sharing private discussions with the Insolvency practitioner on a public forum. We appreciate you're trying to help your fellow members etc.

 

Also discussions on how to handle reclamation of parts etc aren't helpful to the current situation.

 

Hence quite a few posts above have needed to be hidden

 

@Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman will be along later to discuss further.

 

Thanks,

 

Ian, on behalf of the WSCC Moderator Team

Well, despite requests  and suggestions to rein it back in, we haven't.

 

As a result, NO ONE is now collecting ANYTHING on Friday. And posts in THIS thread are the main reason.

 

The insolvency people are on here, they are reading it, and now have justifiable concern for their own safety, the threat of "a few big lads" from various different justifiably upset clients arriving, attempting to gain access etc.

 

We don't have any idea, at the moment, what parts of the orders that are sitting at the factory, have actually been paid for by WSC Ltd either, so even though you may have paid for that item, it may not be the factories to give you, and it's removal could be construed theft!

 

But for the time being, no public (ie on the forum, whether in main or members only areas) discussion along the lines of going grabbing stuff etc, no matter how successful or otherwise you or your mate found it in the past, or speculation of what the Insolvency practioners are doing. 

 

If as a club, we have solid information from them, we will post it. If you have information that you're not sure if you should share, then PM either the mod team or myself and let us know. We will collate and respond.

 

If the group who thought they had stuff there to collect want to set up a group PM to share the responses, again, that's fine, not a problem, if you're not sure how, let me know and I'll start it.

 

This is something we need to do to protect the interests of our members. We will all, I'm sure, spend years dissecting the events of the current few weeks, when they're over. But for the moment, we need to be smart about it, and control our selves. 

[Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman]

OK, we seem to have reached a point, where there isn't much real news, plenty of speculation and a lot of raised emotions.

 

To be absolutely clear; various posts, innocently made, some just trying to be helpful and giving examples of things that happened elsewhere, were seen by and reacted to by the company handling Westfield Sports Cars current situation.

 

As a result, Fridays collection day that had been arranged for a few people has been cancelled.

 

Those posts have now been hidden, I know, I know, stable door and all that, and this thread locked.

 

If and when we get more solid information regarding the Administration process we will keep you up to date in fresh threads. I suspect it may be a little while.

 

Bearing in mind the "damage" we have accidentally  and unwittingly inflicted on those fellow club members affected by this change of heart on Friday's collection, we would ask once again, until things are clearer and public statements have been made by the companies involved, for the sake of those customers of  the factory, both Club members and none members, can we please refrain from starting up more threads to speculate, and in instances, without meaning to, inflame the situation.
