Wedge odds....

[wedg1e]

You know that winning the lotto is 14 million to one?
Well, here's some statistics to make you feel smug in the knowledge that you drive a car few others have (thread inspired by the Tasmin 200 one elsewhere..)

In order from the most common (i.e 3 numbers) to all six numbers and the bonus, on a double rollover

Yes, I know, there was Peter's White Elephant, and supposedly a 500SE or two, and maybe a 350 turbo, and a 4WD one, and an estate, and one that could fly plus all the ones that didn't work or were cancelled (420 Sports Saloon, Speed Eight (twice) ) but for those recently joined or lurking with a view to buying a Wedge, now you know what odds you're up against. Total Wedge production over, what, 11 years ? was some 2600 cars: at the height of Chimaera production they were making almost that many A YEAR. Common as muck.
