Bought a Wedge, 400se

[Chadders75]

First wedge and it's amazing,

Lots of work, but lots of fun.

[KKson]

Well done. Photos please... which one is it?? Cheers. Keith

[Chadders75]

Hmm, not sure if that worked. Might need to try again!

[KKson]

Yep, worked fine and looks great. Which part of the country are you based? Do you think you'll have it up and running for the BBWF?

[Grady]

Looks great!

[Chadders75]

North Norfolk,

It runs ok, but needs a lot of work, not sure quite what or where the BBWF is.
Hope to rebuild over the coming years, all being well.

what a great looking wedge..........yet another being sold "off market"

top work fella

BBWF is in the midlands ish in the summer (mental note to self to pay more attention lol)...........Zig on here is "the man" with the details............ZIG

[Chadders75]

It was on ebay, ended just over a week ago, got it from a very nice chap is south Wayles.
700 mile round trip, but worth every mile.

Still can't get the silly grin off my face every time I sit in it.

Be nice to know if anyone know any of its history. Although it came with good history file.

Welcome to the wonderful world of Wedge ownership...Are you a man of mechanical skills?...Do you know how to use a multi-meter?...Do you have the patience of a saint?...If yes to all of these then Wedges are NOT for you.....

There is a wealth of knowledge on here and don't be afraid of asking silly questions cos even serious questions get silly answers...
We will always try to help you..

Firstly have a good look over the car...Has it been run for a while....Don't go changing too many parts until they need it...There are some simple maintenance tips that can avoid creating issues that are not there already.

The BBWF is an event focusing on the Wedge..We have fun over a weekend and raise some money for good causes...All the information is at the top of the forum ...

I've known this car for 10 yrs or so. I introduced the last 3 owners to each other... nearly bought it myself before Jason bought it. Got loads of pics of it on various runs out over the years. Will dig them out tomorrow.

Didn't see it on evilbay.

Well done. TVRs get under the skin. Cracking looking car. Is it a keeper?

That would be excellent, any information would be gratefully received.

Welcome - plenty of wedge fans here and plenty of good advice from people who know these cars well.

[Waynester]

Welcome.. Good to have some new owners on here! They are indeed addictive, many of us are multiple owners..I'm on my 5th Wedge!!

That's one lovely car you've got there mate,, I bet those pictures enthuse you.

There's really nothing quite as dramatic as a good Wedge, increadable cars.
