[simonwedge]

This looks quite nice (7th one down), does anyone know this car or has been to see it?

I don't know anything about that wedge, sorry...BUT check out the crazy Mercedes ML55 with Lambo doors on the same page.

Does look familiar, i have a feeling it has been discussed on here before due it having 400SE front & 350i rear.

The wedge looks OK .. except it looks to have 400 SE front end and sides and 350i rear end.. at least that is how it looks to me.

Certainly unique .. like the ML55 is..

Price .. well may be OK depending on condition.

Maybe a bit high but it is a dealer and they have to add some mark-up.

Never seen that car before.

I did think I hadn't seen a 350i like it before but didn't want to show my ignorance (which I've just done!).

Perhaps interestingly, there's also a Karhouse in Derby, which I assume is part of the same group, and they had an '89 350i in until about a month ago which I went to see but it had been picked up that morning and taken to Switzerland by its new owner. It was light metallic green with green interior. Looking at their other stock TVR's aren't really their thing so I wonder if they've got hold of someones little collection?

It's maybe some bits that where left over on a Friday afternoon.

Very strange as the interior is 350i rather than 400SE
It's a 350iSE.. certainly unique, looks like a tidy car from the pictures, doesn't mention what the chassis is like ?

Surely this is the (much-discussed) car that was for sale last year in Malton, North Yorks. I'll do a search to confirm.

Look at those wheels !!!

[grahamw48]

Ok, I believe this IS the one that was one of PH member 'MARKS6900's sales from last year.

Here is another of one of his 'interesting' cars from even further back.

I think it may be this one as discussed (below) here...pity the ebay link is too old to revive:

Note the reference by PWD95 to the TUSCAN race wheels.

Could the 400 front have been put on following a prang ?

[pwd95]

Quite possibly. It's definately a mixture of bits. The pictures we discussed previously were much better & closer. We established that it had a 350i rear but with the bumper blended in. It has the non 400SE windscreen pillars, (the 400SE winscreen pillars are thicker, especially at the bottom.)
So yes, a bit of a pic'n mix but it looks like a nice machine to me.
