So when are you changing the logo back to what it was?

Hi Eben,
Lets ask Art (Mince) to take out the "VWSA" on the bottom ring and just put "South Africa" there as the vw is already in the flag, and they can not tell us to change the flag, as it is a perception and not a registered word.

Lets get our Logo Back

Hi Maybe we should just change the symbol to the international Peace symbol instead of the VW badge This coupled with the cogwheel would satisfy my and probably confuse some people man

Maybe you should use the old KDF logo before it became Volkswagen. Who owns the rights to that? :twisted:
