What does this sticker mean

[joe81]

I have this sticker on the rear of my W reg mk1 172. Does it have any meaning or can I remove it.

 

[freebieme]

I've never seen one before.

 

[S77CCP]

it means the car is cornish

 

[DrR]

It's a Gay cult symbol.

 

[joe81]

Seriously, can you expand any, tell me what you mean. I bought it from Newcastle, so its traveled some distance

it means the car is cornish

​

 

[S77CCP]

it a symbol of a old cornish tin mine, which the locals are very proud off. sadly the industry died of years ago, but its still a symbol of the region

Have you read the Da Vinci Code? Same sort of thing, its a quest for a pot of gold, but you need to find others with similar codes, then you make a map etc etc

 

[joe81]

and theres me thinking that my car might be special or limited or something. It just looks very natural as if it was part of the manufacture

[S77CCP]

you have the exclusive 172, there was only 172 made each have the sills like that leather interior and bbs wheels?

 

[dannyboy172]

Is that a door sill from an exclusive mk1 172??
Edit: beaten to it! lol

 

[joe81]

I thought exclusives where green with cream leather. Mines just silver with the usual half leather, may possibly be sills taken off an exclusive, but why, they'd be hard to get hold of

 

[joel_b]

to remove it heat it up with a hairdryer then remove the excess glue with a credit card

 

[joe81]

^^^^^ Will do I think, might try and find out abit more about the cars history, would Renault be able to do this?

 

[JD]

sos mate, wasnt meant to be a harmful comment, bloody nice one if you have an exclusive?!!

 

[joe81]

I was only messin with ya

[cat171]

I think that the owner of no 103 will be missing his kick plates as you have them, they'll probably just have standard ones on their exclusive.

 

[Leeshez]

Who was the previous owner? A religious person lol

 

[joe81]

Nah Lee, a youngish lad up Newcastle, but the rear window does have a yachting sticker in it, lol, just shows it was owned by a sensible owner in the past, I hope

 

[Rhino172]

thats defo not an exclusive...

the door sill is probably from one like others have said..

Check with the DVLA or do a HPI check on it if your concerned about it's history...

 

[nottie]

that sticker looks like a one finger salute! lol

 

[joe81]

It does abit, might have to modify it abit

that sticker looks like a one finger salute! lol

​

 

[cliobritt]

Right, the sticker is a dealer sticker from ROWES honda in Liskeard by plymouth.

 

[joe81]

^^^^^^ sounds good, means I deffo take it off now

[NB 02 HOT]

might sound stupid but i'm sure i saw a picture of those sills on ebay & they came with the number transfers? if you by them from reno do they come with numbers to transfer on? did look twice at the picture when i saw it because was a tad confussed.

 

[JD]

if you ask for the trophy or exclusive then yes. how much did those go for in the end, was watchin them then got bored!

No wonder I couldn't find a good one locally when I was looking!:rasp: :rasp:

 

[lemonnobby]

i reckon the sills were brought from renault or something as it comes with a bag of stickers so u can number your own car.
