But remembering the logos we see everyday can be harder than you'd think, as a study hilariously revealed last year.  Vanmonster asked 100 members of the British public to draw several famous car logos from memory, and the results range from impressively accurate to hilariously off. They also serve as an interesting insight into which logo elements are ingrained into the public consciousness, and which are more forgettable than the manufacturers might like to think. For some of the most memorable logos ever, check out our best logos of all time. We'll start with perhaps the simplest logo on Vanmonster's list.
