As an aside to this photograph, would that car lose a mark in a concours (ignore the grazed wheel rim for now) for not having the Morgan hub cap logo lined up with the MMC words in the casting.

It's been bugging me and I had to get it off my chest getcoat Not that my car is a concours contender.

When Peter Harris was fitting my new tyres last week he lined up the tyres on the wheels so that the valves were perfectly in the middle of the Vredestein logos on every wheel.

Bob, for me yes, & all the wheels should be rotated so that the valve is at 12 o'clock too, before judging starts grin2

I would line the centre caps up with the valves and have the valves at six o'clock. although the valve on my spare I prefer at 12 o'clock.

Technically the date codes should be the same as well.

Yipee, my date codes are all the same.

But a semi sensible question for Judge Dave.

I would have lined up the cap with the MMC wording whereas you would have lined it up with the valve.

As you are the judge, Does that make you right and me wrong. Is there a rule book for these things?
