How about this as a roof graphic?
For a red car w/ white top:
Now I just need to find someone that can do laser-printed, weatherproof vinyl...

Hmm.
I love minis, but frankly, I'll take Finona, and Matt--you can keep the car.

I've been hearing that Mike's badly backed up, so I'm looking for a local place... Maybe he's getting caught up?

I've always been a fan of WWII era "pinup" art. What about the RAF Roundel instead of the Union Flag?

I was actually thinking the exact same thing and have a version with the RAF circles, too. Let me doll up the circle a bit - I added a subtle gradient to the UJ sphere to spruce it up a bit - and I' ll make a sample of that, too...

"Doll up" the circle. I applaud your choice of words.

Both of 'em look good to me. The only thing I might play with a bit (eech sorry bad pun) would be to move her down towards 4 o'clock a bit - just to see how it looks offset.

I actually had her there to begin with and she looked a bit... odd. Works better with the RAF roundell though... hmmmmm.

I was thinking even more a bit off-center from there, but I can see how it's going to create two areas for your eye to focus and create confusion. This may be one of those times when it comes down to a coin toss!
Sorry - into the beer over here, so I may make less sense as things go on.

Go with the roundel, it has more of a nose art look.
