Thanks for letting me join you all

I’ve been a Westfield fan for very many years having gone to the factory very many years ago with my brother in law to collect his pre litigation 7 kit. I’ve watched the car being built and over the years morphing into a track orientated vehicle.

Over a few beers on the weekend the potential sale of the weapon was muted so I thought why not buy it and then decide what to do with it. Offer accepted and it looks like I’ll soon be a Westfield owner hoping that many on here will be able to assist in my plans for it.

Brilliant!

 

Post up some photos and specs when you can, a track focused pre-lit sounds very interesting!

[Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman)]

Wonderful, and welcome; we don’t see many track focused prelims, like Rob said - will be great to see photos and hear more!

[DaiEvora]

Thank you for the warm welcome I will post up photos once the deal is completed which may not be for a week or so. 
I’m sure on here there will be many willing to give advice as I proceed with the next chapter of its progress.

I am a lifelong Lotus fan and currently own an Evora GT410 Sport. Living in west Wales I also organise an annual Pembrokeshire Driving event for the Lotus Drivers Club along with one other annual Wales based event.

Welcome from another newbie, too late in the year now for me but I'm really hoping to get out on track numerous times next year, already shopping for trailers

Looks lovely, not many engines sound quite as good as a xflow on twin webers

Thanks I’m yet to get the experience of driving it but the spec seems pretty good with 130bhp at the flywheel so I’m told.

I still miss my xflow prelit. Loved the sound of a xflow

Looking to put it back to predominantly road use and the odd track day and sprint/hillclimb maybe. First stage of the lan is to get it onto a rolling road to sort the engine and to maybe replace the existing straight cut four speed gearbox. 
interior will need seats etc sorted but it’s a great looking project and a car I know the complete history of.

Finally got to have a good look at my acquisition the plate on it says it 87 SE 205 so I’m presuming it’s an early pre lit build. It comes with a carrier bag of invoices and early literature. Lots of spares as well so over the winter it’s going to a local specialist to sort ready for next season. Best bit of the visit to view today my wife like it (at the moment)😂
