Surprise encounter

[MonkeykingZX]

So parked the P6 up by the green at Haddenham today and wandered down to the post office to pick up a parcel and just happened to glance down a driveway, took a few more steps and realised that I had just spotted a wedge.

Went back and took a picture from the road, it's obviously not much to go on but it definitely looked like the rear of a wedge.




Isn't anyone on here is it?

Sure it's not a lotus Eclat ?

[superwedge]

As above

At a glance it does look like a 280i or an early 350i but there is no rear bumper and does look a lot like a lotus eclat rear end on closer inspection....Dont forget though they were both designed by the same dude...

[celcius]

Whats the reg

[MonkeykingZX]

After a quick google it would appear it is an Eclat.

Oh well

Hey. It's still a Wedge, just not a TVR Wedge.

It looks like a 280i / 350i.........did anyone else use upside down rover lights? ???

It'd have to be an Excel rather than an Eclat with that age plate; the Excel was the restyled version (fatter and uglier IMHO) that replaced the Eclat in about '82. Yes, it was called the Eclat Excel to start with but they soon dropped it...

Seems like the rover lights were very popular! Tvr or lotus? Monkeyking you might just have to find out? ??

Well I missed another parcel whilst collecting the first one, so I'll wander down at some point and see if I can find out for sure.

Haddenham - not too far from me - what you got?

So, what's not to like



SDi lights on there? I've got a pair of them in good nick, might stick them on the flea and see what they make.

I preferred the slimmer cant rails of the original Eclat...
