Around 220miles a tank, alot less on track, so not that bad? Since we put the newest injectors in i think it may be even better, not gone far enough to find out.

The badge is being done by a guy on ebay from Ireland, search for landrover badges and you will find him, can't post a link at the mo.

I recently bought a Cerbera 4.5 boot style badge from these guys.

I am very pleased with it. The gel isn't all that thick but the quality is superb.
You could ask them if they do custom designs.

Nice one Brummie, I bet that'll cause a few double-takes, assuming they get close enough.

I thought about it but preferred the 5.5, personal taste I suppose.

Yah, i want to keep it original! hehe

Nit picking, 4.0 was badged as Speed Six.
I sent him a Speed Six badge to copy, i considered doing Six.nine in italics as per that badge, but not for long! smile
Cost is dependent, but the 4.5 badge from the independents is in excess of £150!! it will be alot less than that.

I take it these badges have the pins in the back to attach to the rear of the Cerbera and is metal, not just a stick on type badge.

In other words they are an exact replica of what is already on the Cerbera.
