2002 WESTFIELD S EIGHT

For sale is my 2002 Westfield SEiGHT with a 3.9L Rover V8, 5-speed LT-77 gearbox and Ford Sierra LSD.

I've owned this car since November 2020 and am the 3rd owner. The chap who build it was the owner of a garage and build it as part of his retirement activities. He owned it for 18 years and about 8,500 miles and when he was unable to enjoy it further due to old age, he sold it to a trader. The trader used it for a bit whilst it was for sale and this is when I spotted the advert on Ebay. However, I had another Westfield that I needed to sell first, and by the time I had done so, the advert was gone. On the off chance I contacted the trader and it turned out the car was still available... I picked it up the same week!

The car starts, runs and drives well, does not smoke, and holds good oil pressure. It has just been serviced with oil, filter, coolant, brake and clutch fluid. The V8 does use some oil and a compression test has shown lower compression on some cylinders, which is reflected in the price. The current mileage is 16,500, but may go up if the weather is good. It's not due an MOT until July, but I will put it through earlier if it sells before then. With the Q plate, the emissions check is visual only, so there's no issues there.

It comes with full doors, wind deflectors, JF Stanley Auto-pyjama and loads of other bits and bobs. Whatever I can find in my garage that is kit-car related will be sold with it.

The GRP body is in good condition, but 24 years old, so set your expectations accordingly. In my ownership I've replaced the 'cosmetic' roll-bar with a proper roll-bar, fabricated a rear diffuser, fabricated a removable boot box with lid, installed removable side panels and made the nose-cone removable without tools. I also installed a new interior, GRP shell seats, 4 point harness, C-Tek charging point, a cruise control gizmo and a phone charger/mount (iphone 14).

The wheels are John Brown Wheels 13" Smoothies (7" rear, 5.5" front) with Toyo R888s (rears fitted last year, fronts are a little older). The rear arches are covered in plasti-dip, and I'd always planned to wrap fake carbon arch protectors (supplied) and fit those instead. The same goes for replacing the current vinyl dash with a fake carbon dash blank (also supplied).

Viewings are available in Northampton and subject to decent weather. You can contact me by email, phone, whatsapp or text.

I'm not interested in P/X offers. I'm also not going to perform your HPI checks using your dodgy websites. If you are genuinely interested you can perform your own checks...
