][\/][ajor1 Posted August 23, 2012 Posted August 23, 2012 After 2 1/2 years of Westfield ownership I'm having a change. Picked this up a month or so ago and now working through the various jobs to do as it's been stood for 5 years. Having it's first MOT for a while on Friday so fingers crossed . Posted at the request of Doug Dastardly [\/][ajor1' timestamp=1345745530' post='980930]I didn't know there was such a thing (an ownership thread) but here's a few pics. It's been stood for 5 years so in need of a little recommissioning but it will soon be in tip top condition......and for the record, the damage to the front was done by me at the local garage whilst having a pre MOT done. 1 Quote

nearly done Posted August 23, 2012 Posted August 23, 2012 Vey very nice. Fancied one my self but seem a bit pricey when compared to the Westfield. Lucky enough to work opposite Steve Perez`s hotel where his genuine Stratos is often parked!! Quote

Smashing Good luck with the mot It's not 4 pipes but I agree it does look like it....the top 2 are spring clips through the chassis which hold the rear clam on. Just the way I've taken the pic. Quote
][\/][ajor1 Posted August 23, 2012 Author Posted August 23, 2012 Looks ace! I see no wing damage...? Right at the front nearside. You can see the white fibreglass beneath. Quote
ivormole Posted August 23, 2012 Posted August 23, 2012 lovely. Remember watching the originals on the Epynt ranges being driven in anger - a fantastic looking car Quote
peterg Posted August 23, 2012 Posted August 23, 2012 If you need any help, my best mate has one with same engine and in the same colour although his is lefthand drive for authenticity! Chris built his himself and knows them very well.. and can point you in the right direction for fixes... he and a few others managed to arrange to get glass side windows made, much better then the polycarbonate ones apparently.

Cleggy the Spyder Man Posted August 24, 2012 Posted August 24, 2012 looks very nice - good choice Quote

Buzz Billsberry Posted August 24, 2012 Posted August 24, 2012 Its a great looking car. Are they as bad @ handling as Top Gear's programme/Stig made them out to be? Buzz Quote
