MKIndyWestfield?

Are Westfield owners now describing their cars as MK's to try and sell them?

I dunno, but it looked a bit odd to me. I'd be asking the seller a couple of questions?

Were MK making Indy's back in 1998?

Why is it registered as a Yellow Ford Saloon? Must have been completed pre-SVA?

Why does it look a lot like a pre-lit Westfield (even the badges and nose cone)?

Looks like he is the third owner. He did not build it himself. Does he know what he is driving....

Probably not!!

The guy who runs the TVR track days here in NI calls all Seven-like cars Indys now. I have to repress a smile every time it happens.

I asked a question as to whether it was correctly registered, pointing out that an MK Indy and a Westfield are not the same as each other, and a search on http://www.mycarcheck.com/ says that reg is on a Ford.

No reply so far...

Yes, I saw one of those at the last track day at Kirkistown (a Raptor it's called), wondered what it was, but it was mechanically very similar to an Indy. Do Kits n Klassics supply MK parts to Ireland? I've a mate requiring Book dimension front wishbones, and MK won't answer the phone!

Bit of a clunky site to navigate but.......they actualy have a Indy build manual that is more than 9 pages long !!!!!!
