The Westfield X1 or “Eleven” comes from humble beginnings in 1989 as a replica of the ever-popular Le Mans Lotus Eleven.
In 2004, the replica kit car project was launched once again and is still produced to order in batches of five to this day.
In keeping with the original replica’s spirit, the kit utilizes components from the MG Midget, such as the A-series engine, and pairs them with a lightweight body.
The Westfield X1 is seldom seen in the wild, save only for rare occasions on par with unicorn sightings, but never fails to turn heads. It’s not just a pretty face either, packing a mightily impressive power-to-weight ratio and being built with one purpose in mind; providing the ultimate driving experience.
If you’re looking for a truly unique weekend or track toy, this X1 has to be at the very top of your list.
• Finished and prepared by Great British Sports Cars
• Only covered 500 miles since build completion
• Includes assembly photos
• V5C document present
As this wicked kit car was only IVA certified earlier this year on the 17th of January, you’d be hard-pressed to find a more recently completed example.
This X1 was purchased as a partially built kit, then sent to the highly regarded specialists over at Great British Sports Cars to be completed and prepared for IVA.
Although the speedometer will display miles from the original engine, the X1 has only covered around 500 miles since the build was completed.
Despite covering so few miles, the car has been treasured by the current keeper and has been thoroughly enjoyed along the way. It is only due to lack of space that this X1 is now looking for a new home.
The car comes with a fantastic collection of paperwork, which includes the V5C document, registration letter, and a folder full of invoices for parts and labour for the build.
Notable invoices show evidence of the original MG donor vehicle, along with the finishing work by Great British Sports Cars. Also included is a fantastic collection of photographs taken at the beginning of the build, before being acquired by the current keeper and finished professionally.
Don’t let the flashy red upholstery fool you, this car was developed to be an ultimate driver’s car and certainly isn’t just for show.
The TRS harnesses hold you in place around the bends, leaving you to focus solely on the steering wheel and road ahead of you.
The interior is of course in superb condition and looks absolutely spectacular against the olive green paintwork. Both seats show no signs of use, with the carpets, door cards, and dashboard following closely behind.
As the vehicle utilizes parts from the donor vehicle, MG owners will instantly recognize the iconic Smiths dials and driver controls. All of which, are in excellent condition and help provide a touch of character to the otherwise new interior.
When you first hear “kit-car” you may initially picture something a little more subdued and commonplace, not a fantastic Lotus Eleven replica! It truly is a beautifully made kit, with all sections and components fitting together superbly.
This X1 presents itself beautifully having been expertly finished in Olive Green by Great British Sports Cars. The colour suits the elegant lines perfectly and pairs brilliantly with the red interior.
As the car is inspired by a purpose-built racecar, the exterior is left rather streamlined with only minimal details and aero-friendly lighting. All details and lights are of course in excellent condition, as are all 4 Minilite-inspired wheels.
Overall, this Westfield X1 is in superb condition and is guaranteed to attract the attention of keen onlookers wherever it ventures.
The X1 follows Lotus’ philosophy of “simplify, then add lightness”, providing drivers with an engaging driving experience that utilizes the car’s excellent power to weight ratio. It is a vehicle that is more than at home on the track or a curvy B road.
Buyers will be happy to hear that this Westfield performs exactly as intended, and benefits from being professionally finished during the final stages of the build process. Having covered around 500 miles since the completion of the build, the car of course has no mechanical or electrical issues to report.
This Westfield X1 is a brilliant vehicle, made as a replica of the Lotus Eleven Le Mans car, with the intention of providing drivers with a truly engaging experience. This particular example is in spectacular condition, having only been built around 500 miles ago.
Buyers are now presented with the rare opportunity to own one of these exquisite kit cars, just in time for the upcoming Summer!

Come funzionano le offerte massime
Il processo di offerta massima ti permette di fare offerte senza preoccupazioni.
Inserisci la tua offerta massima e il sistema farà offerte automaticamente per assicurarsi che tu sia il miglior offerente - fino all'ammontare da te stabilito come tetto massimo.
Anti-sniping
Car & Classic contrasta il fenomeno dello “sniping”, ovvero il fenomeno dei rilanci all'ultimo secondo per vincere l'asta.
Se viene fatta un'offerta nei 3 minuti prima della chiusura dell'asta, la scadenza di questa viene automaticamente estesa di 2 minuti per permettere agli altri offerenti di reagire e, se lo desiderano, di rilanciare.
Incrementi di offerta automatica
Se la sua offerta massima è uguale o inferiore al prezzo di riserva, la sua offerta massima sarà applicata per intero se lei è il miglior offerente.
Se siete il miglior offerente e fate un'offerta massima superiore a quella di riserva, la riserva verrà automaticamente inserita come prima offerta.
Una volta raggiunta la riserva, Car & Classic si assicurerà che tu sia il miglior offerente utilizzando solo gli incrementi di offerta indicati di seguito.
Vi terremo in testa fino alla vostra offerta massima O all'incremento più vicino alla vostra offerta massima, a condizione che la vostra offerta massima sia sufficiente a coprire il valore dell'incremento.
Ammontare dell'offerta

Superamento immediato dell'offerta
Quando piazzi un'offerta massima e questa viene immediatamente superata, questo significa che un altro offerente ha impostato una soglia di offerta massima superiore alla tua.
Puoi fare nuovamente un'offerta o impostare una soglia più alta di offerta massima e il nostro sistema rilancerà fino alla nuova soglia, cercando di portarti a essere il miglior offerente.
Offerte massime di pari ammontare
Quando ci sono due offerte massime di pari ammontare, quella impostata per prima è quella che viene considerata “migliore offerta”.
Pre-autorizzazione
Potremmo trattenere un piccolo importo di pre-autorizzazione sulla tua carta fino alla fine dell'asta, quando quest'ultimo verrà poi stornato. Se vinci, verrà prelevata una caparra che verrà detratta dal pagamento del prezzo di vendita per il veicolo e non comporta costi aggiuntivi per te.
Cosa sono le Offerte pre-asta?
Offerte pre-asta significa che avete la possibilità di fare offerte prima dell'inizio ufficiale dell'asta.
Verrà comunicato se si è il miglior offerente o meno all'inizio dell'asta.
Problema con l'offerta
Le offerte sono contrattualmente vincolanti. Per tutelare l'utente, sono previste alcune regole nel caso in cui si ritenga che sia stato digitato in modo errato. Si prega di controllare e modificare quanto inserito.
