Blue Wedge History

[BlueWedgy]

Pretty much as the title...

Can anyone shed any light on the history / owners of E858YGN.... Are there any old owners lurking on here.
I am particulary interested in the paint colour.
Any info detail would be very much appreciated.

Many thanks

If it's the original colour, then the paint code will be on the VIN plate - confusingly it is titled "BODY CODE"

Hi,

Thanks for the reply.
The plate on the passenger bulkhead only quotes the VIN number and Engine Number.

I have seen cars of a similar colour dark blue. I also know the colour codes are posted on this site. However, without colour plaques it is kinda hard to get a good idea if the colour is standard or customer specific

Can't believe I've only just seen your posting as just googled the registration number. I am a previous owner of this TVR and owned it 12 years ago. Bit late now but wouldn't have been able to help with the paint as was already this colour when I had it. The lights were always a bit dodgy and would only open up when they wanted to. How long have you owned the car? I have a pic on my driveway.

Hi Chris,

Well, that was a pleasant surprise, If you don't mind me asking how long did you own it (from / to).
Any other back owners you know of and who you sold it to?
All a bit of a long shot this, as no doubt this may be a little hazy, as it was some time ago.
Any other information you can impart would be good also.
By the way your profile picture also appears in Rockettvr as well.

Many thanks
