Hi everyone
Just bought a 350i wedge.Have wanted one for a long time and now I have one - 1989 model.Have been reading your forum for a bit now and find it very interesting and sometimes very funny. As you all seem very friendly and knowledgeable I might be asking a few questions when things go wrong.

Welcome to the madhouse.

Sadly you're in a part of the country where there are hardly any wedges and they're obsessed with Cocks (or is it chickens)

Think about moving to Holland

I'm sure you mean IF things go wrong, Wedges are the most reliable cars in the world - probably

Welcome!

You must come to the 'Big Bad Wedge Fest' (BBWF) next month and meet all these other ...insert own word....

Enter 'Wedge' or 'BBWF' on the search facility of the PH TV section for video of last year's event.

Other than that, take comfort in knowing that there really are other overgrown schoolboys charging around in LOUD wedge-shaped TVRs, with big grins on their faces.

Very soon it will become the BBWWF (Big Bad Welsh Wedge Fest). Try saying that after a few pints.

Welcome to the wonderful world of Wedging.

Thank you all for welcoming me into the fold. Answer to Chassis33 No I do not work for Toyota engines, I actually work for Vauxhall Motors in Ellesmere Port. I will put some pics of my wedge on here when I get some done. I have to do some for insurance valuation anyway. My car I have been told is Azure blue - is this a Ford colour, I need some touch up.

Welcome there. Why not have a word with the guy that sprayed it in the first place: www.pistonheads.com/gassing/profile.asp?h=0&memberId=63078&f=13&t=269514
