I regret that I suffer from a peculiar form of blindness. I can't see Wedges with the hood up . This is clearly a problem suffered by the few TVR drivers I have passed on the road, who do not acknowledge my presence even when I flash and wave at them

Anyway, I took some pills, put on my strongest glasses and perused Sprint from stem to stern ... and I can only find one Wedge of note ... on p24

Try in the regional round ups - and yes you will need strong glasses.

I can only make out 9 (possibly ten) unique cars (some cars appear more than once). Definately need stronger glasses - S

Well I try to stay away from weddings! Last one was mine 30 years ago next year. Next one is my daughter's ... next year (!). Offered to take her to the church in the Wedge, but she turned that idea down in favour of a 1930s Roller, with a Mulsanne for the bride's parents, and an Alvis Tourer (C1932) for the groom & best man ... but I'm picking that up in the morning so I can have a spin in it (well, I'm paying!) - Streaky
