420R Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 HiHas anyone out there got a NOS one of these laying around?Thx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrightpayne Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 I take it you've seen the one on ebay at an eye watering price? Its been there a while so worth a cheeky offer! I think I paid £33 for mine when Caterham had stock and that seemed a lot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
420R Posted February 12, 2021 Author Share Posted February 12, 2021 I've seen that.I want NOS.Not some grotty S/H thing for an outrageous price!The current badge is 33 quid odd. The one I require does not say Caterham.https://www.demon-tweeks.com/caterham-7-nosecone-badge-2016-on-cat30v297a/?istCompanyId=a2904180-3a7d-4e56-b876-cf81c9512180&istFeedId=6fbc4b04-fd28-4ce1-8513-835c8f118690&istItemId=wptimmiam&istBid=t&gclid=CjwKCAiA65iBBhB-EiwAW253W2fZOYyiAS8UieU2sqoN2YCLHgDu4dfUSk8pf4s_4kC9fyPJUguHdRoCTBYQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrightpayne Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 The one on ebay looks pretty good condition TBH and described as NOS. The old school metal and enamel badges have been out of production for a while so may be your last resort! He did have two listed but the other sold (it was similar but with 'Sprint' on it too)The one you have linked to is nothing like the quality of the older 'traditionally' made badges.Lets hope a fellow member comes up trumps!

Wrightpayne Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 Just checked and it was £46 new not £33. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simon_h Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 No one seems to make proper badges anymore. Lotus enamel are available but they are knocking on for £100 now. You’ll be doing well for a nos much less than the £80 that one is up for if it’s the one I’m thinking of. He was open to offers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K7 VCT Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 If you have a tatty one could you nit get it refurbished ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leadership Team SLR No.77 Posted February 12, 2021 Leadership Team Share Posted February 12, 2021 I had a fairly grotty and bent black Super 7 badge that I gave to a local member, he's done a lot of work on it and sought out a specialist who can make the metal badges from scratch, not cheap though. However if it's the last part you need and you're looking for originality it's worth the cost.For info my original had a threaded rod attached to the rear which then located to the nose with a single hole and nut, it's also a much heavier enamel badge than my yellow/green 16v badge.Stu.ETA, this is the badge after the refurb: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7 wonders of the world Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 I contacted a seller on eBay who made domed badges for wheel centres etc, they made me a nose badge for a fraction of the price, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Reeves Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 I know of a brand new one but with SPRINT at the bottomit might be for sale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
