I am putting my Cosworth Turbo Westfield ZEi220 up for sale.
I had the wheels stolen in November, have it all sorted now with brand new Compomotives and Avons. The steering wheel and lock was damaged also so i replaced the wheel/boss and entire steering column assembly rather than just the lock.
The car has undergone a complete checkover with new suspension bushes, propshaft new U/J's, recon driveshafts etc. etc. so is ready for full speed use again.

I took the car to Donington 2 weeks ago and Oulton Park yesterday to give it a thorough shakedown after being unused for a few months, as always it was the fastest car there.

This is a very high spec, a fully sorted car with massive history, happy on both road and track. You wont find a faster westfield, it's a bargain compared to what you have to spend on something like a Caterham R500. My westfield can match these on a tight track and is faster on a high speed track. 330Lb/ft of torque gives it a big advantage above 100MPH.

Drop me a mail if you are serious about owning a very well setup Westfield.

Basic spec is

Westfield ZEi220 Reg L16 COS
Engine Cosworth 4x4 green top 93 spec
7.7:1 compresion
GroupA head gasket

Radiator Radtech racing F1 spec 4 cored
Fuel system In tank escort cosworth pump, feeds external presurised swirl pot, feeds GroupA fuel pump, aeroquiped –6 feed from pumps to rail.
Tank capacity 27litres using internal baffle
Gearbox Borg Warner T5 cosworth 2wd with quickshift
Rear diff Sierra 4x4 7" with LSD 3.68:1 ratio
Front suspension Double wishbone adjustable camber, alloy uprights, alloy hubs, adjustable platform AVO shocks, 24 way adjustable bump/rebound, 1.9" springs, terry knightingale anti-roll bar kit, 2 ¼ turn quickrack

Brakes Front, Wilwood Dynalite 4 pot racing brakes on 285mm disks, Hawk HT9 Ferro Carbon Pads
Rear, escort cosworth rear brakes, Mintex M1166 pads, braided hoses front/rear
Interior Full leather with wet weather gear and tonea cover
weight fully fueled 700Kg
power/weight 480BHP/tonne

Performance at Santa Pod (first and only attempt on unsuitable tyres.)
reaction time 0.587
60ft 2.221
330ft 5.611
1/8 ET 8.298
1/8 MPH 90.09
1/4 ET 12.547
1/4 MPH 115.79
Second fastest recorded westfield at Santa pod. Fastest is a 4.7litre supercharged. Drag racing is not my thing.
Donington park average lap time 1min 21 seconds 2 up on road legal tyres
Recent 0-60 timed runs at donington park RS owners club national day on an uphill low grip surface. Set 2nd fastest time of hundreds of cars with 4.00 seconds. Fastest car RS200 500BHP groupB rally car, 3.98 Seconds. I expect 3.3 seconds on grippy flat road.
Current fastest lap around the Nurburgring is 8 min 10 seconds video confirmed. Top speed on the lap 145MPH.

Still remember my passenger lap on the Ring John, nothing came near us, what a complete package with some really good history. A well sorted car.

Awesome car, and nearly as fast as a Caterham R500 round the 'ring, you were doing really well until you posted the pictures, now then, where is my jelly mould.

Caterham Man.

Seriously though, great car, great spec, should sell in an instance :0)

I would say the car is faster than an R500 round the ring by a big margin. The R500 time was set by someone who has driven 1000's of laps there compared to my 40. Knowing the track is a big thing at the ring.

Thanks for the compliment.

Looks like i need to advertise through the usual channels.

I so hate selling cars, especially something unusual as most people dont know what they are looking at.

Thanks for the kind comments. Stef recons he may have CK at the ring II ready soon so that lap may be on there Richard, we'll have to wait and see. LOL

I wish I had the money, as I'd love to own this beast. I've heard so much about it and thankfully saw it in action at donno a few weeks ago, amazing car. Well worth the money.

My wife said you had given her a better time than I ever could once...but this was at Dono and she was comparing your Westie to my 22B, at least I hope thats what she was talking about
Honestly a fabulous motor. Good luck with it...TTT as they say.

Depends what you call a top spec one pete.

There are westfields for sale for over £25K depending on spec and age.

My asking price is £14K. They made just 12 of these ZEi220's and this one is the most developed and has the most history.

Sounds fair, but no second westfield is worth more that £14,000, I have spent over £20,000, on mine, I won't see that when I come to sell it, sad fact.
Wish I had got a Caterham.

I asume you mean second hand.

Are you the authority on westfield valuations then?

Plenty have sold for more than £14K second hand, i have had people mail me surprised at how cheap the car is, i am being realistic.

I am very happy that i bought a westfield, it's a damn sight faster than any caterham at more than double the price. Finaly, who cares what you wish you had done, this is an advert for my car, not for your poor life decisions.
