Apologise for all the posts, currently looking for another Westfield. So second car on the list, 1997 SE. Looks and sounds tidy apart from a bit of surface rust on the chassis What should I be paying roughly ? 1600 crossflow with some headwork, 4 speed box.

That surface rust looks very superficial - looks in great nick to be honest.

I'm assuming its a narrow, and having a xflow, is very authentic IMHO....

Dont write off old school to quickly...

Dependant on engine 'tune' I'd say anything between 4-5.5k.....IF it was bit older, it might be worth more going to the French market where >30yr old 7 style cars can fetch a premium...

Mart.

Hi,

 

It looks an honest enough car, I've seen it advertised on the Book of Face for about 6k so should be a good buy with a bit of haggling.

 

The rust doesn't look anything too major but you'd need a good look round it in person to be sure.

 

I'd take a look at the tyres as they look like Parada Spec 2's so could be quite old. Had an old set on my first Westfield and they were "interesting" at the limit.....

Indeed, some of these older cars with the classic Ford engines don't seem to have been getting much love recently! But it's easy to forget the Crossflow, nicely tuned is probably one of THE most charismatic engines in a Westfield - on twin Webers, at full chat, the sound is like few other engines.

 

Don't rule cars out, just cause they don't have a more modern looking 16 V motor in there. :)
