The new 'Mondeo duct tape bumpers?' - Insignia front badges

[p4cks]

Now that 99% of the MK1/MK2 Mondeos have followed their traditional Ford path into scrapyards through excessive rust, you start to miss seeing their duct taped bumpers.

I'd like to propose the Vauxhall Insignia and their missing front badges as their replacement. What makes it even more impressive is that it exposes the Opel badge underneath.

Here are a few examples:

It's seems OP was right about the Insignia.

Vauxhall badge affixed with half chewed chewing gum that expires and falls off. Must have counted about 11 missing...as a car aficionado I can spot a car model long off, as soon as I know it's an insignia the eye is drawn to the grille and it's missing adornment...

I car share with two others and we play the Insignia front badge game. It used to be the Nissan Juke foglight game but over summer we pause the game and have replaced it with this. It passes the time on what's normally a very, very boring commute.

Anyway, here's another on eBay...

I still see them every single day and it makes me think of this thread

Every bank holiday you’re almost guaranteed to spot a broken down VW Camper/Beetle (normally T1/T2) stranded in a lay-by.

Indeed. £20K to briefly look 'cool' driving about the seafront and then 2 hours looking uncool whilst waiting for the RAC
