Who owned this?

[Neil E 99]

So after letting my 400se go a good couple of years ago the itch is back.

What is it about a wedge ?

Im sure this is a well known car in Wedgy world. Its been at Amore Autos for a while now but before I go berserk all advice or knowledge history etc etc would be very welcome. I have read about the mods. Black 450 se reg G139YRE

Many thanks.

Can't fault Amore for trying to get wedge prices up

There's a satin green 400SE that's been up for a while (not sure if it's with them), looks familiar to me from years gone by unless it's the same colour as Adam Q's (or was it Jason Vaughan's I'm thinking of...?).

I also see that the ex-'Firefox' car (D659 YLP) is on the market, now repainted from mustard yellow to a vivid blue: thick end of £12K
Some folk will recall the early Wedgefest where the then-owner was adamant the car was originally built as a SEAC, crashed and subsequently rebodied as a 420SE...

Thanks for the reply.

Have seen the green one come and go a couple of times.
Decisions , decisions 🤔

A guy called Tim owned the green one several years ago, and it wanted for nothing. I've seen the black one, and although mechanically good, it needs a fair bit of work to get it tidy. There's also Bobs 430SE now up for sale. Stunning in every way, and as rare as.....

That 430 is stunning no doubt about it.

Somehow the home office wouldnt be too happy if I bought that one !

I owned the black one around 2010. Twas a really nice car & made over 280 on the rollers on the original engine...
It is the camera car in this vid I recorded....
