I went into PPC / Leven today to book my car in for a service. Whilst there, I was looking at the range of Leven shiny bits that are available.

I have the above for my cerb and V8S and would really like some for the wedge. Leven used to make them a long time ago but not recently. Anyhow, they said that if there was enough interest, they would look into producing them again.

So, are others interested in these?

If so, what would people prefer the logos to be?
TVR?
Wedge?
Tasmin?

I wouldn't mind any of them, perhaps I'd prefer 'TVR', but I'm not fussed. Anyhow, what do you think?
If you think it's a good idea then contact them and let them know, I think they need a run of about 10 orderssmile

I won a pair off the raffle at the BBWF, 350i etched on mine and they dont half set the car off with the doors open. Now i just need to get the piping off the seat sorted.

They are still going and gradually re-introducing things that have not been made for a while (if there is demand).

However, they used to be sold from a place in the SE who closed their business, so the LT brand is now run by (and from) PPC in Melton which is not far from me and hence why I get tempted by bits hehe

I have no connection as such (other than my cars are all serviced there)but you can find the web site on the net if you are interested. It wasn't good news that someone had given up making quality products but it is excellent news that someone else has taken them over and making them to the same standardsmile

Simon: I didn't know RT did them too, thank yousmile

I know what you mean, I have them on my others and they do add quite a bit to the car (hence I wanted some for my wedge). I wasn't sure what should be on the plates as there need to be minimum numbers for production runs, some may prefer model numbers, others something more genereric.

Hmm, I just thought, if I bought SEAC plates would she believe I had to buy a SEAC to go with them...... It might work hehe
