I have always loved the Wedge but didn't quite know why.
There is something about the brutish powerful good looks
that I have loved for as long as I can remember.

I have been round the facory on 2 occasions,but it was only very recently,
just after I upgraded my 1989 Brown 350i to a 1990 Mica Blue 400SE,
that my Dad suddenly brought out this picture



I took the picture of him when we first went round with his engineering society
I am guessing it was 1989/90?
Does anyone recognise this car?

It is a nice green colour with cream? leather and brown carpeting
Also notice a wooden steering wheel?
Still has covers on the seats being prepared for delivery?
and doesn't look as is it has had a number plate fitted ever and the spot light covers are missing

It would be great if it was somebody on PH's car

Cheers

Richard

Hope it's not ready for delivery, the oil cooler is missing, the bracket is there but no cooler.
Also there does not seem to be a mesh at the front either.

Could be Steves ?

Looking at the front it looks like its had / having a repair at front hence messy and missing bits ?

I've got green carpets and biscuit interior but it certainly looks Cooper green.

Looks almost identical colour to mine, but mine has green carpet.

Agree with Stever - WEDGES do look better in darker colours. biggrin

How come my post has been hijacked into a battle of the colours?

All I wanted to do was to find the owner of this car
to give them a copy of when their car was born.

Is this too much to ask?
