Been a while but the 400 sx has been absolutely awesome over the summer after the new sc power supercharger was fitted. Have used the car as much as possible including a great trip to Cornwall which took 9.5 hrs to get there from London and 10 hrs back due to school holiday traffic, reminder, go to Cornwall at night. Pleased to say the wedge was 100% reliable and the roads in Cornwall are amazing if you get up early and its not raining.

My son made a few vids which seem to have appeared on you tube, I did like this 50mph run on an empty country road.

Te vid is well within the local speed limits! It is good to get the car on some decent roads, we went out every morning on a different route with the roof off- it rained a some point every time and my windscreen wiper had stopped working before we left (so not totally reliable! ) the magic of rainex did the trick. So long as you are above about 40mph the windscreen just clears itself although it isn't ideal in a complete downpour. I need to investigate the issue.

Zigs, I was following you after the sausage meet few weeks back going into shooters hill rd, There were 4 not 3 wedges on the same stretch - I was quite far back though. Trouble is I work every Saturfday morning but hopefully a new bod coming in soon to help out. My mates just bought a Chim after liking the wedge so hopefully you will see a couple of new additions very soon!
