Bought a Roadster script rear badge with the intention of putting it on the back of the Morgan

I’m guessing they are quite a new addition to the Roadsters and weren’t put on 2008 cars

If anybody knows when they started to be fitted?

Anyway

I’m having second thoughts and can’t decide whether...

1. To fit it at all
2. Fit it under the existing Morgan script badge
3. Fit it on the left hand side

Any thoughts me learn-ned friends?

Left hand side I think Stewart, either way would look good though

I now think under the morgan script will look better, if they are exactly the same colour match and size

My 2005 has Roadster script on the left-hand side. I believe the script may have been used from 2004.

There is no Morgan script.

The Roadster badge is a little brighter only because it’s new but after a first clean and polish I think it will match perfectly

That’s odd

I wonder why they didn’t put the Roadster badge on the 4 Seater?

I would have thought they would do the same on the 4 seaters - either Plus4 Badge or Roadster Badge

In fact, this whole badge thing has got me puzzled

Ordinarily on a 2 seater is there any Indication of marque on the back?

How does someone following a Morgan know it’s a Morgan if all there is a Roadster, Plus4 or 4/4 Badge ?

My 4/4 had no badge or script. I think it's only Plus 4's and above that have them.

The Brookie has the Roadster badge but surrounded by the Brooklands logo, which I'd guess at a vinyl sticker under the top lacquer coat.

I think the two scripts on the same side look lovely & sit so well. But how would they fix..?

I think it looks good under the Morgan script badge where you are holding it.
