Silly question..
But if I claim my car is a Lotus replica .. am I okay to stick Lotus badges all over it?
Will it effect my insurance by making the car more desirable to nick..
Just looking at this on EBay LOTUS 7 GOLD LEAF REPLICA-ONE OWNER-The only gold leaf replica advertised.

Wonder what the grip is like on those Tigar 185 70 13 Tyres

According to the blurb, it's ".....correctly registered as a Locust"!

Well, it may be smartly painted, and seems to be well presented (in the photos), but ............. nearly £6000 for a Locust???

Do what you want badge wise. If you try to pass it of as something it isnt, thats when the troubles begin.

I have the blue oval ford badge on my nose cone and boot..... but dont claim its a ford even though most of the parts are made by ford.

I had a lotus badge on my Vectra for a while until it either fell off or was knicked (Not sure which I just noticed it was gone and replaced it with a Red Vauxhall badge).
