Last weekend me and a friend discovered an enthusiast TVR community on the chanal islands. about 25-30 TVR's on both islands. Not bad!. We took the white one home and will be on Dutch plates soon.

White is definitely this seasons colour. We've taken our Wedge over to Jersey a couple of times on the Condor ferry, and only seen 1 other TVR, a Griff. The scenery is great, but the roads are not for TVR's really - too narrow, lots of stone walls etc.

This is good isn't it - not content with robbing the mainland of wedges the Dutch boys are emptying the colonies too ;^)

At this rate Wedgefest 2020 will be in Den Haag...

I think cantus indicated in his post that he (or his friend) bought it and are taking it to Dutch-land smile

I'm in a Chimaera in Jersey, don't see many Trevs generally though although I reckon the wedge is the most common, been speaking to a chap opposite my work who owns a bright yellow wedge.

In fact Cantus is it you thats bought that one? I have a pic of it when I saw it out on a sunny day last summer, I'm liking the red leather

Yeah Peter is his name we've exchanged numbers and sometimes he pops into work for parts, and I've spotted him at that very same location, in fact most if not all the wedges I've spotted have been at the St Catherine's Cafe, must be something about wedges and bacon! there's also a nice blue 350i here in fact most of the wedges here have had some serious TLC thinking about it which is encouraging.

Mine lived on Guernsey for a time. Judging by the conditionwhen it got to me it didn't get the locally normal dose of loving.
Also a white one - TAZ 5590

But it's coming good now and should have the body back on shortly... bounce
