God almighty! That is sad, errr..Lotus!

Why on earth would anyone put that on their car (any make!) neither one thing or another.

I dont like!

I just love the sense of humour & if I was fortunate enough to also own an MX5 I'd put one on just for a laugh.
Hey but the price isn't too bad; maybe they could start making Lotus Badges.
(Also in Black so more of us could have Jim Clark "special editions" :wink: )

Reminds me of the Esso Tigers Tails that you could attach to the Filler Cap; it was so daft you just had to do it "The British sense of humour" was a great thing.

I think once Lotus find out they may get a letter from their solicitors. I'm fairly sure the shape in the badge and maybe the colours are copyright to them.

Would not like to have spent the money on making them up only not to be able to sell them - potential ouch!

I have seen a similar one that says Mazda, which works better for UK owners where the Miata is known as the MX5.

Personally I like this one better
