Why are S series 2.8s going for 6k ish like last year and wedges are going for about 1k less... AND the wedges are V8s.

Whats it all about, anyone got any theories....?

I think it's just that a lot of people don't like the Wedge shape (no accounting for taste ).

I don't think there's much in it insurancewise, and maybe the S buyers don't realise that the Wedge was a more upmarket, better equipped product. sniff.

A Wedge is a rare car, not a single one in Sprint this month so hold steady on the price boys, sellers set the price and its a sellers market

Wedges without a doubt are worth more than the S's. It's just that over the last year or so a number of owners have been happy to sell at low prices - sonmetimes because they didn't want much for the car and knocked off £2k or so for a years ownership as being part of the experience!

I think most owners now would not sell their cars cheaply.

It seemd to coincide with the TVR factory problems as well though. Thing that amazes me is how much Chimaeras have dropped, big losses there.
