Westfield

[GREGA]

Hi, Ive just purchased my first westfield a 1992 pre lit model. A good well looked after car, but has`nt seen daylight for not far off ten years. The paint has faded a bit in places. How much roughly would it cost to have it resprayed and can anybody recommend anywhere near Northampton. Thanks

He is a mate of mine and used to own a prelit Westie.

A mate's dad runs this garage, they have a spray shop I believe, and a he's a really sound bloke.

They're in Rushden, so pretty close to you as well.

Sorry to change the line of enquiry but can someone explain what pre lit means ? Thanks.

I believe it is 'pre-litigation'. Refering to Caterham taking Westfield to court for their cars being too close to the Caterham/Lotus design. After the court case the Westfield was totally re-designed. AFAIK.

Try the Westfield factory, might be cheaper to buy new panels than have it repainted

you won't get the panels cheap .I phoned about a pair of new cycle wings for my old pre-lit and they wanted nearly £150 for the pair!!!!.I bought some shop soiled (were getting painted) from a locust place for £20 for the pair,slightly thicker glass,so won't crack like the early ones.
