Well, couldn't have sold onto a better wedge-head - the 400 SE was driven away today by a top bloke from Wales, glad to hear he made it home in one piece and with the roof down all the way!! Think you'll see him on here pretty soon.. Just wanted to say out of all the cars I've owned over the years, wedge ownership has been the most involved and entertaining - a big thanks to you all, I won't be straying far and hope to be back in the future.. and will still be coming along to BBWF although I know it won't be the same - needs as must

Sad news Sean, I know how much you loved that Wedge.

But, as they say, every cloud............. Good to see another Wedge in the Valleys. One more for the marrauding Cluckers. Hope he likes big chickens and pirate flags

Seamus - really sorry to hear that you were selling it and even more bad news to hear that you sold it but the new owner is one lucky guy.

Seamus

Thats a real sh-t, no wedge, still you still have that lovely photo "three in a row" and that section on the DVD of me chasing your arse in "Some spirited driving". See you soon.

Flags unfurled and ready for any invasion plans here, Dicky.





Now if I can just get this in the boot!





The way wedges keep migrating we`ll have to redefine BBWF2006
to something like........................Big Bad Welsh Fest

Cheers Guys, never thought I'd see the day.. neither did the family.. glad I have the DVD & pictures of all the events to enjoy when I feel a wedgeless moment. Certainly be back for BBWF 2006 and beyond..

FYI he's from Cardiff (as Mike thought ) - it's his second ever wedge and he took it away on his birthday - what better way to celebrate!

unfortunately I haven't worked/found work for a while so in line with trying to keep on a financially even keel, I've decided to part company with the cars. TVR is in the blood so I will likely be back at some point - it's happened before, it can happen again
