Which one would you prefer?

Bottom one.
Hate berlingos and their stupid angles….

If I had to make a choice between the 2 it would be the bottom one, I am another one who hates Berlingos because of the body lines

The bottom one is fab and I would just drop the right hand down as a happy medium

Bottom one.
But align the text on the lower panels with the black body moulding. It might look a bit strange on a drawing, but in real life, from any sort of distance, the swages tend to fade away and it’s the moulding that holds your attention. Any text that isn’t aligned with that looks cock-eyed.
Unfortunately, that isn’t a cast iron rule, and there are exceptions, but it works in the majority of cases.

think you may be doing the btm one. which is very nice

Bottom one. But add a small radius to the corners of the rectangle.

no they are all sitting on the fence, except one 😉

bottem gets my vote aswell . . if you are printing this see what a light yellow to orange gradient / fade on the top text ( top to bottom ) looks like. If its only going to be cut vinyl forget I said that 🙂
-
bottom one too…and make the rectangle and wording & tel. no smaller, so the company name stands out more…and round the corners as jonmo mentioned earlier 😀

Bottom one, but as said above, align it with the black body moulding. Berlingo’s are pretty similar to Kangoo’s aren’t they?

Alison originally came up with the bottom design.
The customer decided he didn’t like it very much and after looking at a few different fonts he described the top layout to us as how he wanted the van to be set out.
This (the top example) is what has now been approved by the customer and we are doing this van tomorrow.
Both Alison and I would have much preferred to do the original design (bottom layout) – but he doesn’t like it and he’s the one that’s paying us 😕
Incidentally – we always run the lettering level with the bump strip along the side (as John has already suggested) and find this always looks fine on these vans

I like the bottom one best phill..
Top one looks to disjointed, if you know what I mean?
The bottom design is tied together better.
The panel below the text seems a bit deep to me. Ide maybe make it less deep, but that’s maybe just me mate…
An idea might be to even make the panel white with weeded out text. Or perhaps a pinstripe line of the shape of the boxes with solid text in middle? Again just ideas… -
So this doesn’t mean that Alison does better designs then you Phill?
-
unmistakable yet looks like it could be so many other things as well.
