Yeah, it's all fine and well introducing these new t-shirts, but I am a very (very) big guy and 2xl doesn't cut it. Any chance of you going bigger, or is there some way I can special order them?

I would make myself poor buying all the t-shirts I want on PH.

I'm guessing you're not gonna be ordering the elise shirt?

Nice MX5 shirt, but...

No Rover BRM?
No Fiat Panda? (old shape, not the James May version)
No Old Volvo Estate?
No MG Midget?

Just trying to complete my wardrobe - a shirt for every car, and all that.

Can you put it to a vote for what the others should be? Seems the best way to both publicise and ensure that the most in demand get made.
If only there was a simple way for people to register their interest on a list of cars they'd like to see on a T-shirt.

You'd think that the internetty would be useful for stuff like that.

If you were to ballot you just know that a few of the owners clubs would moblise their memberships to ensure that popular cars were all you ever got, so no Renault 4 or Espace I'd guess and not that I'd want to buy either but I rather like the fact that they exist. Like the cars they portray, the world is a better place for ŧhe existence of such nonsense.

Were I to be wearing a hat I would duly doff it.

Yep, we know that we can ballot members, or we can do it by popularity of forums, or just our own gut instinct based on how what people turn up to Le Mans in.

However as has been said a few times before, the limiting factor is what line drawings we have available from Autocar, as these wouldn't be viable without them. We're cracking through these at a good rate though.

It says they're printed to order. If so, why the limited colour choice on certain cars? Surely they can be printed on any base colour?

I just ordered a Turbo R and a 2CV, but it would have been good to have had them on green and red respectively. I've had to have the Turbo R on yellow, and the 2CV on blue.

We will do them on other colours. We rushed through a load of designs and I understand it's more about doing the outline in a lighter colour for very dark shirts (like the 911 shirt) and they didn't have time to do this for this batch.

Seems unlikely that they'll do it on here, it's far too simple an idea!

How about 'Very Very Almost Lorry' (VVAL) as a t-shirt slogan?

The Turbo R turned up on an orange shirt (if that's yellow you're colour blind) and I got a Rover SD1 on the blue, not the 2CV I ordered.

Not good grumpy

Eek. Not good. frown

We'll get it sorted - the shop guys will have replacements out ASAP. Could you PM me & Paul with your order number?

Huge apologies.

Faith restored.

2CV right size/colour.
Turbo R right size, but still orange though, not yellow. I don't mind, it's fine.



hehe
