Crash bar writing?!

[Co182]

I was looking on Facebook and I saw someone post on Csoc this picture (sorry for stealing it if your on here) anyway

I’ve always wondered why cars built in dieppe have writing on the crash bar? My bg 182 says ND I guess it means noir dorè and my mates titanium says tit lol! But what’s with the bubble writing saying tot? My old extreme 4 said Otto as well yes it was a non sport but the extreme 4s are built in dieppe for some reason. Very very confusing are the dieppe chaps![emoji23]

My 182 says the same, Neil and Darren?

Black gold in French is noir dorè so it’s Probably colour related, but that bubble writing saying Tot [emoji23] it’s really strange

I mention this on my build thread and a couple of people said they had the same! I thought the car had a bump before I owned it and the owner was pissed off about it 😂

And here’s me thinking the picture on the crash bar in the first pic is a cross section of a beam

If you think that’s bad, don’t buy a TVR.

I don’t think the ph1. Or early ph2s has it. I don’t think it’s bad it’s just pretty interesting why they did it. Like the Clio extreme 4 was built in dieppe it’s really strange? Might learn French and go down and ask them lol[emoji23]

All Trophys had RV on the crash bars for "rouge vif"

Rouge Vif = Bright Red

Mine says something too, not sure what though

My old Racing Blue also had DYN or something similar.

The Petrol Blue has nothing.

It must be related to colour.

My Arctic Blue says ART

Perhaps so that all the body colour bits that get put on after are the right shade?
