Additionally, Clausager says that the early badges were silver on a dark blue
background whereas the later badge had light blue on a silver background. The
later, single (the official Parts List is wrong when it states two) stick-on
badge
was always fitted to the passenger side. Interestingly, the early badge was
never
used on exports to Arab counties as Leyland was persona no grata at that time.
