That was my third Chimaera, I had another two after that plus a couple of Cerberas before I saw the light and came over to the dark side!

At the BBWF a former Griff and Wedge owner said to me that he got to the stage where he'd walk away from the Griff in a car park and not even look back at it. I was a bit like that with the Esprit: it did what it did extremely well, almost like a modern Jap car... but for daily driving it was just unexciting. The Wedge kind of makes you want to don flying jacket and goggles and check the machine-guns are loaded... every trip

So Vickers or Browning , or Besa ? And where would they fix to ?

[mrzigazaga]

Id say twin vickers mounted on the bonnet either side with the trigger on the steering wheel..Possibly the water cooled version but hey you would only need a little burst anyway..

Forget the Vickers or the Browning I'd just fit a 20mm Cannon coming straight the car and out onto the centre of the bonnet or better still - the Vulcan tank busting electric cannon off an A10 Thunderbolt.

If you're gonna kill something - do it with some firepower baby!!

I'd bang a Phallanx goalkeeper in the passenger seat me!!!!

Honestly, you Wedgies are so childish

OK the truth is this is a bloody good idea.

I now plan to fit this low powered job on my Chimp.
