The perfect trackday special? We think so. As fast (or faster in certain places) as a similar power Radical without the worries of running costs that those are saddled with, thanks to the Audi 1.8t powerplant. You KNOW that engine doesn’t need any special maintenance, tinkering, refreshing after a few miles or any other such rubbish.

This has a few (but crucial imo) modifications over an XTR2. Obviously the drivetrain is different, the rear section is now totally removable, rather than having a tiny engine cover to try and work through, the cockpit is larger, the rollbar is higher and enclosed, the nosecone has integrated lights, the arches are flared to help smooth airflow. Front/rear track is also wider.

With 180-195hp (don’t know exact figure – engine is the 180hp Audi unit, with good induction, free flow exhaust and an “aggressive” map – all done by Audi Holland technicians and warranted by Westfield, who guestimate 195hp) and similar torque (from around 2k rpm) the car is adequately fast. 0-100 is comfortably quicker than a 996 GT3 RS, 100-140 is similar. Given the car weighs <600kg it’s hardly surprising it’s fairly quick. If that’s not enough, the Audi engines are very, very easy to tune, from a simple 210hp remap to 300hp with a new turbo, ECU and injectors. If you want to scare yourself, 300hp is a good option.

We’ve completed 3 trackdays in the car and on those days it was faultless. Handling is fantastic, the corner speed is truly amazing and in a totally different league to any other road car – it’s setup at the moment to be very friendly, so is fairly neutral, high speed cornering leads to mild oversteer which is easily corrected. That’s not to say it’s easy to drive, but it certainly isn’t intimidating. For you track day veterans, I have a video of me doing a 2.52 round Bedford GT circuit - on my outlap. There's a good 15 secs in the car round there, so it should be able to do a mid 2.30s with the right driver.

It’s road legal as well of course. Surprisingly, it’s perfectly happy trundling around town or back roads, if desired the suspension is easily and quickly raised to give more ground clearance. It’s no off roader , but general road driving holds no worries. Again with the Audi powerplant and gearbox you’ve nothing to worry about like on/off bike clutches as fitted to most other trackday type machinery.

This car is not to be confused with the orange prototype Westfield supplied to the press. This car has a properly sorted gearbox and the brakes work – as well they should, they’re AP Motorsport callipers – proper Motorsport items recommended for single seaters and other lightweight machinery.
Obviously genuine AP disks are used along with Ferodo 2500 pads.

Any maintenance needed is easy thanks to the removable front and rear sections, giving total access and freedom to work.

In addition to the factory spec, we have upgraded the following:

Instruments
· Stack 8130 pyramid system with shift and waning lights. This is an all in one unit which displays oil temp and pressure, water temp, fuel level and air temp. Additional units can be added for accurate lap timing.
· Intake temp display, to make sure charge temps are acceptable
· SPA dual boost gauge – the most accurate boost gauge on the market along with accurate exhaust gas temp sensor.

Suspension
· Custom Nitron shock absorbers made specifically for the exact suspension movement and loading of the car by Nitron – these are NOT generic factory supplied Nitrons.
· Eibach ERS springs. These are the best you can buy. Main springs with Eibach helper springs are used.

Brakes
· As stated, AP Motorsport Calipers, AP disks and bells, Ferodo 2500 pads

Wheels
· Image 3 piece ultra light weight wheels, 7” front, 8” rear with Avon ACB10s

Other main spec
· Audi 1.8 20valve Turbo, Mid-engined, with Audi 5 speed transaxle
· Factory Built
· Removable Front section Removable Rear Section
· Fully independent double wishbone suspension with anti roll bars
· 1.5 turn quick rack
· Twin plane adjustable rear wing
· Black upholstered Westfield racing bucket seats with Willans 4point racing harnesses
· Removable Steering wheel
The car has been cared for no expense spared and has covered only 1400 miles and is covered and stored in a dry garage when not in use. Overall condition is excellent with only a few scrapes on the front splitter.

To buy this again would cost around £34,000

The car is currently on a SORN as the acb10s are not road legal.

I have to emphasise there is nothing else like this – you’ve got 99% the thrill of a Radical/JP1 for 50% of the cost and 25% of the running cost. No matter what you currently drive, you will be blown away. I'm sure the passengers we've given rides to will agree

This is a VERY reluctant sale and I'm sick and tired of timewasters, so please get in touch only if you are serious about buying.
