They are different from other cars i.e. bonkers.
They are very rare.
They are powerful and sound good.
They have a superb interior.
They look good (through my glasses anyway)

But most of all they do this to me - - - - -

It came from an era when everything didn't have to be round and cuddly like nissan micras! A lot of 'round' cars have lost their identity.

Just look at a wedge in a line of cars at a supermarket, which one will stand out. In those days you could design almost anything.

I was looking at a Bond Bug yesterday (not to buy)... if you think the wedge is mad, try one of those.
As a two-finger salute to the safety brigade it's perfect. You wouldn't have a cat in hell's chance of surviving a side-impact from a bicycle. You could pick it up and put it into a parking space. Not only that, you can drive it on a bike license, pay bike road tax and get about 50 mpg from it. So it's also a 'f***-you' to the chancellor! For some reason though, only myself and the biker who was there could see the appeal of it... and the TVR is the same

I used to have an MGB Roadster.....

My Other half is not keen on the wedge & still wants me to get an MGB.( 1 Reason for liking it more!!! )

We went for a drive the other sunday when it was sunny....Spotted 5 MGB's. Only 1 TVR (Thanks for the wave )

and not one wedge....

It looks good and diffrent....
It drives & sounds diffrent than any other car....
Its rare......
The community of TVR & Wedge owners...
& it makes me smile just thinking about driving it

I think you need a beard a sense of humour bypass and to drink warm beer The Wedge suits me much better as a VERY LOUD LARGER LOUT growing old disgracefully.

As a bearded, warm beer drinker at least my MGB was a V8, although it has turned into a wedge now
