Pagoda Polo shirt etc
« on: February 04, 2016, 10:45:17 »
Dear all

I wanted to share with other enthusiasts a photo of a polo shirt that I just received (I also got a matching fleece jacket). I was able to choose the colour of threads used to match them to my paint colour and interior (although my upholstery is in reality a much darker red) and choose my own wording below the image. The polo shirt cost £13 ($19 US) and the fleece jacket £22.45 ($33 US) with free delivery within the UK. The original image was for a RHD vehicle so I had a mirror image used to create a LHD version.

I am yet to try on but on first impressions I'm very impressed.

Pierre,

That is very cool.  Are they made in UK? and who was the supplier or web site?

Hi Garry

Yes it was made in the UK and in my opinion was an absolute bargain. I stumbled across a UK eBay listing for the vendor who has many embroidery images but generally with a Classis car focus. It took some time for him to test whether he could convert his image from rhd to lhd. A few hours after I placed my order I understand MB requested eBay to remove the Pagoda and I assume other MB related listings. As my order was already paid for it went ahead. I am waiting to hear from him whether he wishes me to share contact details publicly in light of the above. I am also being cautious so as not to cause any negative impact to the SL113 club.
