Nice to see someone else with a PB 1.2. Personally I'd lose the Sport badge though
TT
I'd lose the Halfords 'Sport' badge and the sport decals too mate. The positioning of the CS.net sticker would drive me insane as well!
1.2 16v Dynamique
When I bought the car off of the previous keeper the sports badge was already on there, I mainly kept it on there as it became a running joke at college haha, I am planning on taking it off soon, just not quite sure how I would go about it?
I love my little Dynamique, my friends take the piss out of me for it but its my little baby
Mine is my baby too! Have a look here
Just pull, using even force on both sides very slowly.

Of course, if you like it then keep it. If you want to remove it then pour some tar remover on there, let it sit for 5 minutes, get some fishing wire and go in behind the badge. It's only glued on.
Buff all the residue off after.
Let your friends take the piss mate, they're cracking little cars to be fair.
1.2 16v Dynamique
I will have a looksy! and I might do it later (Whilst I am hoovering the car)
I agree with you entirely, they may take the piss but I love the car a hell of a lot, I would be sad to lose it.
I have some wire in the garage so I will go hunting for some, thanks guys

What do they drive?

Some poly front ARB bushes just landed on my desk...
1.2 16v Dynamique
Fiat Punto
Vauxhall Corsa
One has an Focus St (finance)
We do have another clio driver, but his is falling apart so he is looking at getting a new one soon.
tbh I dont really care that they take the piss, I love my car at the end of the day
TT
Does your mate know FIAT stands for 'Fix It Again Tomorrow'?
Corsa.. I don't need to say anything.
ST's are alright though to be fair.
1.2 16v Dynamique
The FIATs powered steering went so he had to fork out £500+ to fix that alone
Corsa is a Corsa, no more needed
The ST is a really nice car, very quick, scared me a lot when I first got into it with him driving!
Picked it up from the body shop. Had a few little marks that were hidden when I got the car sorted plus some stone chips on the bumper touched in. Decided I'm going to leave it as long as possible before getting the front resprayed.
Here's the worst. I new it was there but didn't want the extra sill protector.
Im very happy with how it's came back.
