Hello all, Should be picking up '06 plate 6MPS at the weekend all being well (in black - by far the fastest colour or so I'm reliably informed  ) Already found plenty of helpful information browsing the forum, apologies in advance for any breaches of etiquette or inane questions emanating from my keyboard due to my neophyte status. Speaking of inane questions... was the MPS badge on the passenger side of the dash optional when the car was new? I only ask as most of the pictures of MPS interiors I've seen have the badge, with one or two exceptions. The MPS I'm buying doesn't have this badge and I was just wondering whether the previous owner had not specified it originally or had removed it once he had taken delivery. Not the most important question in the world I know, I'm just curious and can't seem to find the answer anywhere else! Cheers PS Found MPSOC via Google - now there's a surprise for you

 The MPS badge comes in the owners wallet, you can stick it where you like.

Interesting question, I'd wondered that also! My friend said my MPS badge was very slightly 'skew whiff' so I guess that explains why!
Welcome, I'm new here also, you'll love the 6MPS, lovely lovely lovely cars :-)

Cheers StevieMPS, I don't feel quite so stupid for asking now!
If the badge is still in the wallet I think I'll leave it there...

Hello and as jim said the badge might still be in the owners book  if it is and you don't want it send it this way, i like my MPS badge  you will be happy with your 6MPS, It could have been worse you could have bought an even slower 3MPS  Ooh yeah and an even slower silver one
