I am not sure whether this dealership badge - Roy Abbot Ltd of Harrow Weald, Middlesex - is for my M-type or for one of the two others that my Uncle Peter owned back in the 1960s, but it cleaned up rather nicely. It has a St Christopher in its centre.

Would this badge be mounted on the radiator (which I think is most likely) or on the dashboard (my M has a Henley’s enamel badge in this location already)?

Thanks for your thoughts!

Hi Rob

These suppliers plaques were screwed to the wooden dashboard of the car.

Hope this helps

Speaking of dealership badges, I'm looking for a Colmore Depot, Liverpool badge if anyone happens to have one for sale.

Thanks Ian - my M already has a Henley's badge on the dash. I am not sure which badge is consistent with my car's history, as I think Peter, the previous owner of my car, had a total of three M-types (see also the thread on the M2764 VIN plate I found in a box of scrap metal) and I think the car he kept may have retained the "Best Bits" of all three?
