Hi All,
Years ago I aquired this MG Car Club "Equipe competition" car badge and until now I have not been able to find out the exact provenance of this car badge.
Maybe someone in this fraternity could shed some more light on this subject ?
Thanks for your interest.

Passing thought...
looks like an MGA steering wheel in the design, maybe they know something about it... |

No Peter; MGA wheel has four spokes in a strange arrangement such that, if you hold the wheel at "quarter to three", a spoke intersects the rim immediately above and immediately below your hands.

Hi Francesco, Peter and Dave,
Many thanks for your reply's, the steering wheel on the badge is presumedly MG/TD, MG/TF or MG/Y type but because of the considerable knowledge on THIS forum I did ask the question anyway, you'll never know what might turn up !
Cheers,
Roby

It is a possible match for TD and TF. Interesting that there appears to be a serial number at the top. What is your number please Francesco?

The three screw holes appear to possibly match the steering wheel on MG TA-TB-TC.
Certainly not TD-TF-MGA.

I would have thought the screw holes are simply placed to complement the design. Are you thinking this actually goes ON the steering wheel Bob?

I was simply saying the badge holes appeared to match a TC steering wheel as others had referenced TD/TF or MGA steering wheels. The badge would not fit TD/TF,MGA steering wheels. Bob, Canada

I referred to TD and TF steering wheels because of the design 'on' the badge itself which appears to show a 12 spoke wheel like that used on the TD and TF.

| Sorry, I didn't notice the serial number at the top. On my badge the number is 3. |
