Well tasty, but as 'landylover' states, there's an attraction to yellow here?

Its a westfield sei with a 16v xe lump in it on throttle bodies with omex managment.  If i get the bl**dy thing finished i shall take it to billing and get the wife to take the landy.  If we can get a pass out of the site i will gladly take anyone out for a thrash (sorry subtle drive :twisted: ) thats if anyones intrested.

I wish i could take the credit for making these but i cant they were made on the car at simpson racing in slough.  They will make an exhaust for anything you like you just drop the motor down there and collect it a few weeks later if anyone wants the number let me know and i will dig it out.

Deffinatly not a Locust, there made from wood. If you ment Locost then they do look very similar cos the Locost is more or less based on an older Westfield chassis design.

Hope you get it finished before the summer is gone.

Mines not quite at that stage.

Don't get me wrong, i wasn't starting, just making sure.


If you can't afford a genuine Westfeild or chaterham, have you tried some of these more realistically priced kits?
