This Paul Smith Designer Badge is the correct price! Rover say its due to royalty and commission. Can you believe it!! Minispares bought all the remaining stock from Rover and is now surely a collectors piece you cannot afford to leave on the bonnet of your car


Yep that's about right I think.

More info on the Paul Smith mini, and I'm lead to believe that they do attract a significant $$ premium.

Thats a good price, they are hard to get, obviously mini spares found a box of them. They go for big bucks in Japan too.
The gold in the badge is 24k gold plated.
One of the best looking minis ever, too.
