MG TD TF 1500 - Suggestion for new emblem

Those of you who follow the Olympics may have noticed that the British cyclist, Bradley Wiggins, had a very British logo on his helmet. The circular emblem that marked all British airplanes during WW2.
I want this for my car! Do you listen, Moss and all the other producers of these things?

...would be nice to have a nice decal......

The emblem is called a Roundel. As mentioned it is the famous symbol used on the Spitfires during WWII.
It is sold as a magnetic badge by Moss - part number 103-833, and other suppliers.

Well, it is not in any of my Moss catalogues. And it would look nice as a large decal on the doors of my white TD.

I've seen them on British warbirds at airshows. I'll bet you could take a picture to a decal shop and get any size you wanted.

The roundels have been around a lot longer then the 2nd war.... various designs (colours of circles) represent various air corp....

A member of the Cape Cod British Car Club has them on the doors of his Triumph Spitfire. They're great targets at which to throw things. Bud
BTW, the BMW circular logo is also a Roundel.
