JRay Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 (edited) I’ve had this car for 12m, £000’s spent (more than I expected to!). It has been my first Westie and now got the bug - am looking to upgrade to newer & bigger Westie - having been to a few of the owners days! Works done since I purchased - Cylinder head skimmed and reconditioned New camshaft and exhaust valves Cam belt Full carb rebuild - including sonic cleaning, new seals kit etc Oil filter and oil Replacement block (with a reconditioned one) Block honed Piston rings Replace bent valve rods (replaced all rods I think?) New plugs New head gasket New Wheel arch stays New Front suspension arms (upper and lower), including new poly bushes New Track rod ends New Front headlight stays New Starter motor New Exhaust wrap New 4 point harnesses (TRS) New seats New indicator pods New front discs and pads New alternator New coil It has full wet weather gear I’ve got 2 trailing arms (of 4 needed) and Panhard to throw in too. Comes with exterior car cover too (cost £250 new) MOT passed in June Couple of marks on body - Rear arch tops where the screens sit Inside of nose cone - looks like a Dremmel cut about an inch long, not hugely noticeable. Engine bay clean for age of car Chassis and underside good (again, for age if car!) I also have a A4 lever arch file of history, including pictures of the kit being delivered to first owner! £8200, would consider offers. Collection only. Advertised elsewhere.

JRay Posted September 2, 2022 Author Share Posted September 2, 2022 Still available due to a couple of tyre-kickers. Reduced price too, would consider a sensible offer. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard (OldStager) Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 Can't believe this hasn't sold yet, but what does "bigger" mean in your reason for sale, engine or body style ?. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRay Posted September 3, 2022 Author Share Posted September 3, 2022 Thanks Richard, me neither, any tips? Am I missing some info/detail maybe? Am looking for a bigger body style - I’m not a small chap and this car is a bit of a squeeze for me, ok for short journeys but not so good for longer journeys. Some of the Westies I’ve sat in at Curborough and Stoneleigh have felt much “bigger” (ie. Lower floor pan, few inches wider across the seat etc). Might also look for a modest bit more power? Not sure how my driving skills will match up to that though 😉 Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
