Finest regards to you all. I hope you are getting maximum enjoyment out of your cars, and looking forward to good times in the warmer months of 2017.

Blimey! There's a blast from the past! Hope you are well?

YLP is now a lovely shade of blue and is in good hands (though not mine, sadly!).

I'm back in a Wedge after a break of almost 9 years and loving it!

If you join the wedge group on Facebook the current owner is on there.

It has recently changed colour to a really nice blue, has had megasquirt fitted and is currently having another upgrade done.

He is MrWST on here but he posts more in there than he does on here

Wow!

Stunning! She is looking really good. A fantastic colour.

What is 'megasquirt'?

There was talk of converting to carbs - has that gone ahead? She is clearly well looked-after.

Megasquirt is a standalone ecu (better than the old lucas jobby) he is still running it on efi, it is a very healthy engine these days, I spent several days chasing him around Holland a couple of years agosmile

Andy the only reason I was quick in Holland is because I used the cycle lanes ha ha...
Firefox... Yes she has been looked after, lots spent on her though it's always the case with a TVR!! I was toying with the idea of selling her and buying a cerb (4 seats for the family). Though the wife has no love for a TVR so no need for 4 seats.
She's in for a few new mods. ACT manifold (thanks to Zig), shortened trumpets, gearbox overhaul and a few other slight changes here and there. All ready for the summer.
Apology in the delay, it's just easier to post on FB...
