DENNISTHEMENACE Posted June 25, 2003 Share Posted June 25, 2003 I have just bought a 1997 Westfield Sports 2000 LE SEiW in Canary Yellow. Zetec 2.0 16v, Less than 8k miles on the clock. Only picked it up on Monday night and drove 50 miles home in it WOW I thought my Audi TT (225BHP chipped to 265BHP) was quick but the cornering sheer grunt and noise of the Westy was amazing. My wife, who normally does not get excited about cars and sees them only as a means from getting from A to B said that the drive home was fun (brushing the knots out of her hair ) and is now planning our first weekend drive, weather permitting. I look forward to meeting some of you guys and girls at meetings etc. and some interesting exchanges on the forum. My membership cheque is in the post too. See you around soon Dennis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adhawkins Posted June 25, 2003 Share Posted June 25, 2003 Sorry, didn't spot the 'LE' bit, presume that's 'Limited Edition'? Mine isn't...just a standard Sport 2000. I'm not far from Bristol, in Swindon. Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DENNISTHEMENACE Posted June 25, 2003 Author Share Posted June 25, 2003 Yes it is a limited edition of 20 cars produced. Don't know what the difference is, perhaps somedody else does. As far as I know it's 2.0 Zetec 16v 170bhp Factory built on a Q plate (all new bits excluding engine which was a refurb ex Ford testbed engine?) Leather trim discs all round contoured dash long range tank Quick shift box And .....furtive............Yellow is the new blue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
