Wedge era photos please

[grahamw48]

Ok, we haven't had a photo thread for a while, so how about some pics of you ugly lot back in the Wedge era...ie 1980 to 1991, preferably car-related.

Now I know that some of you younguns were babes in arms, but sorry, no ultrasound scans permitted.

I'll start you off with my handsomeness with my Lotus 7.

Did you manage to escape, Number 6 ?

WATCH OUT GRAHAM..

[grahamw48]

That 'Prisoner' programme was WEIRD. I could never work out what the hell it was about !

Come on lads.

Permed hair and shoulder pads, LOADSAMONEY ! etc.

Let's see what you were up to back in the Wedge's heyday, and what you were driving when those rich folk were frightening us all in their V8 monster machines.

[ROOODBOY]

This may not count, but this is me in Bristol around about 1980.

1982 My first company car - doing a Prod'n Car Trial with the wife to be(then girlfriend)to bounce


1987 Drove V12 Jag for friend's wedding and where I got my love of Jags from

This was also the year we got married

1990.

My little Peugeot 205 diesel that I bought new for work in 1989, and already with 40,000 miles on the clock...eventually going up to 350,000. Great car.
Also my little border collie 'Fliss'. RIP.

Later in 1990:

My 3rd world shack in the Philippines, with mail order bride out front.

I bought this little weapon bellow, shame I didn't realise I could have bought a Wedge at the time. On a good note, it was a Wedge that got me in to TVR ownership and that was the TVR racer, the yellow one with the big spoiler on the back.

[Englishman]

My first Esprit (well this is the Wedges section)- 1981

[dixiebabes]
