Was under the wedge in the garage when I hear a familiar noise. Was it the Aston over the road? No not quite right.

Climbed out from under the car and walked up the drive to see the tail of a light metallic blue wedge with a spoiler on the boot disappearing around the corner have turned around in the road.

Anybody visit the island this afternoon?

A friend also thinks he spotted a sandy colour wedge today.

I was on the island about mid afternoon. We went for a drive down from north of Liphook. Been out and about over the last 3 days as the weather has been so good,
- down south that is.

Mine might have looked sandy coloured in the winter sun, but it is more silver looking - rose quartz with chestnut hood (and yes this was up and the heater was on ) I don't have one of those warm flying jacket thingies!

I did turn around in a posh road though (aston m type properties), then drove back to park up in shingle car park next to the surf shack tea room overlooking the sea.

Most islanders would have heard my wedge at some stage

Must have been you then!

You were a mere 100yrds from seeing a red wedge with the front end pointing towards the sky and saying hello.

If you are coming down again let me know and we can meet, as I think I might have a car which can at least match you on noise if not power and we can really scare the locals!

It did sound great, and good enough to get me to come out and investigate.

Hi Martin
If you reckon it was me, then we are not looking for the owner of a light met blue wedge visiting the island?

Sure, - I'll let you know next time I am down your way.

I do usually put an apology in advance if I have got the colour wrong as I am colour blind!!!

Look forward to meeting you and the car, it did sound fantastic, and seeing the rest of the car rather than just the boot!

Sorry about the colour, I usually put an apology in advance on getting the colour wrong as I am colour blind!!

I look forward to meeting you and the car, it did sound fantastic, and hopefully next time seeing more than just the boot.
