Strictly speaking, that was a Caterham.
Both Westfield and Caterham are replicas of the venerable Lotus 7.
Arguably the most accessible 'bad-ass' car you can legally put on a domestic street in this country. (entry level is around the same outlay as a generic family car)
Incidentally, the 360 that is being lapped at 8:45 is the one being lapped at around the 2 minute mark... I think the guy in the 430 is on the limit.
Take one for a drive, they are astonishingly fast.... a similar experience to riding big capacity Japanese sports bikes (but much quicker in the corners)
