Can anyone identify what company this sticker is representing? Also, how involved was the Snap On Corporation with the 2003 G4 event? I've seen their stickers on some of the vehicles in the events; however, I did not see them formally listed as an event sponsor.

Thanks,

Hi Dan,

I hope this will help.

A number of global brand names supplied equipment in partnership with Land Rover for the event. Goodyear provided tyres, and Castrol the lubricants. Other names involved include GKN, mountain bike maker Kona, kayak supplier Pyranha, and the Snap On tool company. ;)

One interesting snippet is that not all companies sponsored the event in all markets.

The core companies logos were shown in all of them (such as Castrol, Goodyear etc.) but some logos didn't appear on the vehicles in certain stages - this is why on the 2003 challenge the Warn stickers are on some vehicles but not on others.

I believe Snap-On is another example -although their tools were used everywhere and the logo was on the workshop vehicles, it was visible on other event vehicles in certain markets.

Being fair though that could all be rubbish, and the stickers either didin't get stuck on or fell off :D

The sticker is not Snap-On but GKN who make the propshafts for Land Rover. The company was a main sponsor of the event in 2003 and the majority of the vehicles had the companies sticker in the position on the Discovery.

to confirm the decal in question is indeed a GKN company with quite an extensive portfolio
