Thrills, heritage, and innovation meet on track. 🏁

Thrills, heritage, and innovation meet on track. 

We @Hedley Bennett (HB46443) - Club Chairman , @Rob Hunter - Club Secretary  & the brand-new Westfield Se.NA R-T at Bicester Heritage for its first public test session, An exclusive opportunity to experience the next chapter of Westfield performance.

Back-to-back drives with the legendary SeiW Zetec reminded us just how far we’ve come, while a sneak peek at the upcoming Westfield XV showcased where we’re headed.

From the XI that started it all in 1982 to the cutting-edge Se.NA, the spirit of Westfield engineering lives on, faster, sharper, and more refined than ever.

 

I didn't take to many images myself, the occasion was like being in a sweet shop!   Big thanks to @Westfield Chesil Limited.

Look out for the Magazine articles from the press.

That is definitely an A-series powered   original XI shown in the photos (according to the DVLA)...

I'm pretty sure it's the factory's ex-SwiftTune car. Lovely thing, but nothing to do with the XV.

Hi all,

 

it was a pleasure to host Hedley and Rob last Friday and show the dynamic capabilities of the new cars. We'll get out to more of the club events next year for sure.

 

Se.NA went down a storm with many calling it a "game changer" for Westfield. The engine with keep Westfield in the NA arena for many years to come and dynamically the car is a massive leap forwards. However, the slightly long-in-the-tooth Zetec car was still impressive as well (we've still got a few Final Edition Zetec kits available before they're all gone).  

 

In the meantime, I can clarify the XI History for you. This one, PHJ545K, we use for our events and track days now.  An ex-customer car, we bought it last year from the owners widow who was thrilled to see it coming back to Westfield. It's 18 years post build and so well built it's still going strongly. It's on its donor A series (the customer owned and drove the donor too!) and pushes out a massive 65-68bhp!  Just shows how these cars can last.

 

The XV we ran in prototype trim, with 180 bhp on skinny 14's, all-round independent suspension and a part aluminium body - note the nose scoop. Everyone who drove it thought it was an absolute joy and I, not having driven it in anger before, couldn't wipe the smile off my face when I got back to the paddock (good job there were no pictures of that!). Another "game changer" perhaps?  

 

Once again, thanks to all at the club who provide support and encouragement to our business. 

 

Best

@Nigel Trilk - Westfield Sportcars Ltd The new cars are looking really excellent and a very sensible progression from the prior models - it's wonderful to see you guys able to promote them publicly at last - good luck with the sales, keeping everything crossed for you!

I'm sure everyone on here is rooting for you guys Nigel!

 

I've yet to see the new Se.Na but am really looking forward to it, I would imagine the new Prodev engine is pretty awesome!
