It seems, the 1 owner Wedge that was talked about earlier is now up for auction. With the guide price 13K-16k, it could be a bargain for someone. It looks so good, I'd be too scared to drive it in case it got a mark on it and would end up as a garage queen. Then again, when I think what else can be bought for that money, I start to hesitate. A nice Yellow Tuscan maybe biggrin

Er........ how can it be one owner when it changed hands earlier this year.....?

Classic cars are for driving, not looking at. Give me a well used but loved one (for half the price) any day.

Nick whale sports cars bought it so trade purchase so doesn't add owners (randomly NW from memory also runs the silver stone auctions so must have snapped it up as it was for sale at his dealership for 18k ish.......clearly not selling so going back out via auction

If you win £113M you can buy my 400SX for a mill - then I can build my dream wedge, a 660SXAC with nitrous, and a chainsaw on each side to chop down any tree it might try and wrap itself around....

It gets difficult though, trying to explain that the first owner did 20,000 miles and although there isn't a second owner it's now done 22,000 miles smile

Its strange why they do this..If anything it starts ringing alarm bells and can quite easily put people off..End result = NO SALE!...

I love the fact that this has only one actual owner and if I didn't already have that exact car, I would look to snap it up. 22,000 miles......

Nice..... sonar
