Subject: Re: radio for rapide
I can't do a picture of my car's radio, but here's a brief description, referring to Christain's photo above which has an illuminated red M - for Motorola - in the middle and which if I recall appears behind the wavelength needle. Well, if you take the front off the radio, I'd guess you'd find this M is on a small piece of thin clear perspex or similar. Substitute a similar piece of perspex with LAGONDA on it, with the word about 2.5cm long, text about 4mm high. It's probably imperial measure so 1 inch long and 3/16 high. The font is pretty plain, not recognisably a trade-mark font - not Arial (too new?), but something like Calibri or Century Gothic. Hope this helps!

Sorry, the backing is clear, the letters are red, and cannot be seen when the radio is switched off

If ever you enter a concours the judges will not be qualified to know the difference anyway...
