FS: 2015 Westfield Mazda SEIW £6700
Hi all,
After casually advertising my Westfield on a few threads I have had a few U2U's requesting pictures and spec etc so I thought I would start a
thread up...
Car was built from a P reg MX5 1.8 with 80k on the clock. The components I used from it were...
Engine + box
Diff + driveshafts
Propshaft (modified by bailey morris)
Front + rear uprights
Wiring loom + ecu/fuse boxes (modified to take out extra circuits)
Instrument panel
Steering column + stalks
The car was built with the following spec..
New 2.4 rack with solid mounts
New front+rear bearings
New front + rear calipers pads and discs
New upper/lower ball joints/rack ends etc
Westfield coilers front+rear
Lightweight alloys with Yokohama Parada 2 tyres
Matching spare with same tyre with carrier to fit if needed
Aerodynamix rear diffuser
lightweight racing battery
Engine was stripped + inspected + rebuilt with genuine Mazda gaskets/seals
Shortened sump
Front of cam cover removed for ease of access
New sensors fitted (o2,temp, oil etc)
Westfield 4-1 manifold and carbon repackable exhaust
Spare chrome exhaust with cat for MOT time
Coolant reroute done
BMC CDA carbon air filter
T7 designs heater to demist screen - other outlets can be added to heat the cabin if needed
Westfield padded race seats - drivers side is on runners
Full carpet set
New Prima Motorsport Titon 3" harnesses with rotary release
Full wet weather gear with framework stowed in place under rear boot cover
Bad points - there are a couple of scratches in the gel coat on the o/s side panel and due to the car being in storage whilst we moved house, there is
also a mark on the front corner of one of the cycle wings where is has rubbed against something.
One owner (me!) and I have copies of all the documentation relating to registration and IVA as well as lots of build photos. The build was started in
2014 and completed in 2015. MOT not needed until 2018. Car is on an age related plate. Mileage is currently 4038 (speedo was reset when car was built)
and although I don't drive it that often it may increase if we get a good day!
Due to the scratches listed above I am putting this up for £6700.
Any questions please ask! More pics are in my archive!

I know it's end of the seven season. But I think your selling the car too cheap! At least by a couple of grand in my opinion

I agree!
I used to be indecisive, but now I'm not so sure

Rob is not buying this, although Its obvious you already know that and are just trying to throw a spanner in the works. Regardless of what was
arranged with him, I am selling it to the person who I was in contact with BEFORE Rob approached me. At the and of the day, It is MY car and I can
sell it to whom I want.
Due to the pending collection of the car this thread is has now run it course and i would be grateful if it could be left to work its way off the
page.

That a pain and I thought it was only ebay that had vankers advertise on it and then pull stuff off , no morals or trust typical seller. Not the
normal quality of people on locostbuilders I very glad to say

Car is now sold and at its new home. I hope the new owner is happy with it, I know I was! Time for people to start acting their age and not their
usernames...

Collected car and just got home very happy and will enjoy driving it.
Dick I'm not sure what your issue is as you haven't replied to my u2u, I met Shaun who is a very nice and honest chap, my understanding is
that I was first to contact, so Shaun and I were in discussion and I agreed to pay the asking price without viewing and collect today. I have been
told by Shaun that others actually offered more than his asking price but as I was first and we had an agreement he stood by it.
Anyway Locost builders is better than this so let this stop now.
Regards to everyone

Well well well, look what just turned up on PH for sale - 2 weeks after this sale - with a £2800 price hike:
How (sadly) predictable, incredibly blatant and unscrupulous given the amount of people likely interested in owning the car for the right reasons.

Can anyone smell bullsh!t? You're a real asset to the kit car community. When I say 'asset' I mean parasite.
Whenever I see this type of behaviour it gets my back up

Oh dear .
Why lie if you just bought it because it was a great price and you planned on trying to make a killing on it?

Whilst frowned upon the guy hasn't done anything wrong. The car was sold too cheap but the owner wanted to sell at that price. You can't
make someone sell a car for market value if they for some reason don't want to.

Who's talking about the original seller? I was referring to how sh!tty it is for bowood14 to turn that car around so quickly and
blatantly to make a quick buck (whilst lying about how he was going to enjoy the car). The kit car scene doesn't need stuff like this, this
whole scenario in this thread just reeks of opportunism which is a drain on the community.

As said by others the seller got the price he wanted for the vehicle no more no less. The new owner has every right to do exactly as he pleases with
it.
Happens all the time Velocity so get over it ffs. It will make no difference to the kit car community whatsoever or this forum.

Whilst a bit underhand the guy is just selling on a car. Do you get as wound up when Arnold Clark give you a crap trade in price then put it up for
sale for 2k more.
If the car was sold at market value it wouldn't have attracted a dealer. But it's the original sellers perogative to sell for whatever he
wants. Even though it really devalues the market for everyone else.

Exactly my point Craig, defend it all you want but I think it stinks in such a small close knit scene/industry.
