It's SEAT

blazer · March 16th, 2007, 10:20 AM

hmmm tbh.. im not sure.. it could be.. any other ideas??

btw the car was seen in america..

it looked like a 'luxury' car however...

araracd · March 16th, 2007, 11:38 AM

America? Luxury car? Definitely not a Seat!!!

D-Fence · March 16th, 2007, 11:55 AM

Spyker?

Perhaps you could add stuff like new/older car, limousine or sportscar......

So.......who knows what the slogan means? images/smilies/smile.gif

The only brand that I can think off the top of my head that looks like the Bentley logo is Chrysler, but I don't think that's what you want:

that middle part enlarged:

For referance, the Bentley logo:

Any other details of what the car looked like? If it was a Spyker, that's a rare bird here in the states, as they've only just started to bring those things over here (saw one myself at the Winter Park Concours d'Elegance in Orlando).

Thought of chrysler too, but there is no big S in the logo.....

What is this?

Blayde · March 16th, 2007, 05:51 PM

um, it's actually from the UK, SS cars:

but i did also think it looked a bit more German and the SS only made it worse

Blind_Io · March 16th, 2007, 05:53 PM

I was going to say I thought that looked familiar. They were actually using the logo, "Swallow Sidecar" if I remember, before the Nazis ever existed. They changed it after the war.

EDIT: Oh, now we have a Wiki link. Cool. *Click* Yup, they became Jaguar.

sonza68 · March 16th, 2007, 06:13 PM

In the US, the only "S" logos I can think of are:

Suzuki

and Saleen

Neither of which are luxury, and they don't have a Bentley like background.

mancs · March 16th, 2007, 06:19 PM

Could be the Nissan Silvia's logo (cant find picture)

Blayde · March 16th, 2007, 06:27 PM

here are the silvia logo:
