BEC for CEC?!?!?
Home built Vs factory built
lesser chassis for a better chassis (only what I have read, keep your hat on)
Depends on what you like, what you want and what you do.
Me personally, I would be MK
Track days ARE the best thing since sliced bread, until I get a supercharger that is!

As above depends what you want from the kit car ownership but sounds like a no brainer interms of resale value etc...

Could be deciding between bike or car engine??
Have always had car engined examples personally but can see the attraction of the bike engine also , resale value of the Westfield will be an
attraction , but it really depends what you fancy and what you will use the car for......have a look on Youtube at Caterham/Stelvio pass....

I may be wrong, but judging by the wording from the OP's post, the deal is there to be done.
I think I would personally go with it.

Sounds like a good deal.
I like my Indy but would certainly do a straight swap for a Westfield to gain resale value so long as the car was as good to drive

Westfield
Mk indy out the gate and Westfield has arrived .... Someone pinch me ...or arrest me because I think I just robbed a man I can't believe the
deal I have just done....
Westfield ... What a car.... No pop rivets or bad fitting panel or part here ... Actually no second hand parts were fitted at all to the car when
built..
Bit slower than the busa but ... I am looking for a more useable car ..and that what it is ... Super is all I can say

bargain !
The bargain of a lifetime. I have just seen the westfield and is mint !. The previous owner paid 5000 euro to pay Irish vechicle tax . The 2 litre
duratec engined car is the best I have seen. Some people born lucky!
