Decals & Sticker or not

[Basher]

If your building a replica rally car and would like to apply a moderate amount of decals/ sticker. Will this restrict the places and events you could potentially take your car, just wondering what others have encountered ?
Also is there any restrictions on advertising you can get pulled up on. Dave

I've never had any issues with the scheme on my car but it's not used competitively. Nobody has ever made any comments on it to me, not even coppers for the number on the doors..

I think Gerry has had an issue with the red/white Marlboro car at the NEC. Advertising a cigarette brand is a bit of a no no.

I had my Type 72 Exige in full JPS livery



Mind you, I wasn't against a bit of Marlboro livery either



Thankfully I've grown out of such childish, attention seeking behavior. Nearly.

We mainly do Classic Tours with mine, where the cut off age date for vehicles entered is usually around the mid 1980’s, but the organisers regs usually say that they will accept entries of more modern cars of an interesting nature, and have not really had any problems until recently, almost asking us to take it.

We have however, encountered an objection earlier this year where I was asked not to take it due to the decoration, on an event that toured the Cotswolds, where cars that are out of the ordinary draw focused attention to the event and thus objections to the local police and in turn the organising Club, from the vast number of second home owner weekend occupiers in that part of the country.

The entry was limited to 60, so not a huge number, but that is the problem that is increasingly a problem and the organisers understandably do not want to lose the ability to put future events on.

So the spirit of Wordsworth and Wainwright are not yet extinct. People who live in beautiful parts of the country and tell people all about it, through their writings or more recently on social media, and revel in the envy of those who can't afford to live there but don't want the hoi polloi to venture too close in case it ruins their idyllic lifestyle. I don't get the organisers' acquiescence either - these cars are road legal and have as much right to drive through that area as anyone else, and it's only for a weekend anyway. Hmmm....maybe next year's Northern Run will be happening somewhat further south....
