Sounds fine, however, bear in mind that every Westfield is different (the majority of them having been built by 'amateurs' ) so the only way to tell how good one is, is to go and look at it and drive it. Ideally, taking someone with experience of other Westfields so that they can tell you whether this one is a good or bad example.

Might go have a look sound like a good car

The general advice is to never buy the first one you look at (although I did, but I did get someone else to look at another one for me).

And seriously, take along someone who knows Westfields if you can.

Looks like an SE?

I thought you were after Wide bodied car?

Did you want an independent rear suspention?

SE = Standard bodied non Indipendent rear.

SEi = Standard bodied Indipendent rear.

SEW = Wide bodied non Indipendent rear.

SEiW = Wide bodied Indipendent rear.

This is proberbly the order of value/desirability IMHO.

i.e.

SE least valuble / desirable.

SEiW most valuble / desirable.

Andy :t-up:

P.S. (From another thread of yours) If you want Cycle wings go for a car with cycle wings, they may be more expensive but converting to cycle wings will be more expensive & proberbly not as good a job in the end?

So that will be why the prise is down for the age and the mile all veru good info thanks people

Posted

yep, I'd say price is fair for a car of that spec.

Posted

What sort of price are

SEW = Wide bodied non Indipendent rear.

SEiW = Wide bodied Indipendent rear.

I think a wide body is best i am not the bigest of people but there will be more room in a wide body  :0

Posted

I would have thought that to get a wide body you'd be talking about 6-7k as a minimum? Anyone?

As for the difference between independant and non-independant, I personally haven't seen many (if any) SEW's (as opposed to SEiW's). I'm sure they exist, but I haven't seen one.

Andy

Yep, I agree Andy, 6-7k for a crossflow or maybe CVH. 7-8k for 16V power.

Be surprised if you find any cheaper and would have to ask why, if you do IYSWIM

Andy's also right that SEW's are not at all common - now wait for all the SEW owners to come on here and prove us wrong!!

Posted

For a decent SEiW I recon you are starting aroung the £8 mark maybe less for an X-Flow/Pinto engined? (Pinto engines have the exhaust coming out the drivers side & tend to be 2.0L units (the MarkII Escort RS2000 had this engine) X-flows tend to be 1600 or 1700cc.

Not many SEW's around, if you do find one I'd say they are worth about £1K less than the equivelant SEiW?

Ball park figures of course. :sheep:

Steve for £500 more you can get SEiW version, or if you want some power go for the Toyota powered car?

If you don't like the Close Ratio box you will be able to swap it for a normal type 9 (gerabox) & sell the Close Ratio jobbie on here for several hunded pounds?

(Pinto engines have the exhaust coming out the drivers side & tend to be 2.0L units (the MarkII Escort RS2000 had this engine

Wasn't the RS2000's lump a bit more special than a normal 2.0 Pinto? I'm sure I remember 110bhp against 90 in a 2.0 Crapi.
