Wedge 350 -- dont touch this one.

[Jonny weggie]

Took my friend down to north yorkshire [Driven Images Ltd] to look at a 350 wedge "88" D,reg, 4hr drive from where we are with trailer. Looking at the picture's car looked good and mot'd. Got there car battery was dead,damp,two puddles of oil below car,told us about an electrical problem,paint work had oxidized,no carpets in foot wells and a lot of other bits and pieces not right either and no mot.
So if your looking DONT TOUCH IT , jonny.

Agreed, looked at it about a month or two ago. We did manage to take it for a test drive (my first go driving a wedge) and it was shocking (lost power within about half a mile). Although for about 3 seconds where it all kind of worked it was fantastic, so I've not been deterred in my pursuit!!

Did you see the exhaust with 90degree bends??

Sorry I didn't post about it, could have saved you a hell of a drive!

Seconded, I went to look at this car probably around a year ago now (and it was up for around 5 grand at the time!!)

The car wouldn't idle at all so i never got to test drive it but the interior was fairly knackered and the outrigger repair didn't look all that proffesional in my opinion.
