I dunno, for Citroen to sue us over these stickers they'd actually have to acknowledge first that XM owners exist, can't see that happening anytime soon

Hi All
It is not worth risking a complaint that would only be made after the stickers were printed and in use. The suggested design has double chevrons on the nosecone of the car anyway and both types of XM symbol are displayed. Put me down for 10. Regards XMexc -------------------- An interest in 2.5TD's.

great suggestions. certainly somethng graphic and striking is what is needed to get attention. i'd be happy to place any of the suggested graphics on my car.
not being the owner of a full family of xm's like some members on this forum i can only sign up for a couple of stickers. there might be 13 windows on an xm but i'm not sure each and every one needs a sticker! -------------------- 2.5td Exclusive - Emerald green of course

Just as a thought of alternative uses for them...
People have in the past talked about a flyer to give other XM drivers (or :shock: under the wipers) to advertise the site. If these are cheep then you could give them a sticker! Otherwise, I guess it would probably be cheep to get the same design printed on paper/card if there was enough demand for a paper version. -------------------- 94M XM 2.5 TD VSX Estate RP 6430 Forest Green

A couple of thoughts on the possibility of Citroen making a fuss about using their chevrons:
Could they make a fuss about an inverted "V" under an "X"? I wouldn't have thought they would have a case as the true chevron tapers down to points. Is the Citroen Car Club an official Citroen site? I don't know but suspect not and their design incorporates the correct design of chevron. My reason for suggesting the modification was because a number of members said they wanted words but no pictures. Derek -------------------- 1999 3.0V624v Exclusive Black! (RP8362)

One of the guys I spoke to about sticker printing got back to me, to quote a price he would need to know dimensions, and number of print colours. Minimum order would be 250.
I suppose we'd need to agree on one or two particular designs before we can confirm this kind of information... Ciarán -------------------- '95 XM 2.1TD VSX Hatch: RP 6429. Rare green ;-)

Could I suggest yellow base/logo and black bold print? To catch the attention then easy-read the message.
