Collecting Car Badges

[michael243]

Does Anybody on here collect Car Badges ?

I have a few that I got off my Granddad but don't know what cars they came off











Well I know that The one is from a E Type Jaguar, the other is from a Jaguar as well one is obviously from a Rover and MG and I think the red one with the M in the middle is from a Morris but the VP one, the red C one, the one with the sword in the middle and the one with the three Rs on I have no idea what they are from, does anybody know?

Many Thanks

I think VP stand for Vandem Plas (sp).

It used to be high spec on Rovers.

Vanden Plas.
Scimitar

The Rover one is from a Rover 213, VP one presumably from Vanden Plas version of same:


Sword one is from a Reliant Scimitar


The RRR one is from an older Reliant

I think the C on red circle may be Commer?

I think the oval badge was used on a bunch of 70s Jags - look, you can see it in the steering wheel on this XJ6.

The oval Jaguar badge looks like it could be from a Xj series I steering wheel.

The 'e-type' is obvious.

M for Morris! Horn button.

In fact, they all look like horn buttons.
