Car badges, which is the best? lets forget for a moment whats under the bonnet and indeed what the car looks like. Which car symbol if you like is the best? One of my favourites are the Aston martin wings.

I like the little crossed flags from the bonnet of a Corvette. I think they look cool.
(I'm going for the most intellectual remark of the day award with that last statement)

It has got to be the Prancing horse for grace, style and power. Then Lamborghini - RAW POWER and purpose. Aston winged emblem suits their cars perfectly. Mercedes and Audi for their timeless star and rings.

Opel emblem looks so much better than Vauxhall. What about names? The Vauxhall name and badge has got to go. It evokes nothing, doesn't suggest anything and further ruins the front of the VX220 by giving it that V on the grill!

That's the one with a tortoise on it isn't it?

I think the Vauxhall VX220 would look so much better with that V removed from the front and just black mesh at the front.

Best badge/piece of car jewellery for me is the chrome Jaguar that’s on the bonnet of older Jags.

My favorite car badge is, believe it or not FORD. I don't think much of their current batch of vehicles but IMO that blue oval looks great.

One that I don't like is the MG badge, which looks like an old 50p.
I quite like the simplicity of the Ascari logo though!

Of course Ferrari is right up there , but the Growler badge on Jags is a classic , Maserati is also great
