it's true that from today you don't have to display a tax disc on your front windscreen

BUT - (little known fact)

if your paper tax disc is still current, i.e. runs out after 30/9/14 then it should be displayed in the rear window until it expires

it's a transitory measure until all tax discs have expired

provisions have to be made by yourself - a tax disc holder, rather like those on motorbikes, has to be permanently fixed to the rear deck of the car

Obvious troll is obvious.
Pathetically so.
to help old duffers like yourselves not get your incontinence pants in a twist I added the clown face to the thread and to one of my posts

So if i fix a motorbike to the rear deck of my car (and the tax disc is attached to that), I'll be ok? wink
no that would obstruct rearward vision

but I suppose if you put it so that you could still see out of one or more external mirrors then that might be OK - but I'm no legal expert

Yes, but it was so obvious it was a waste of bandwidth, then you repeated yourself.
yes, trying not to upset the ancient befuddled minds that frequent this forum, some believe any old twaddle they read - ethanol, ZDDP, lead, octane, EU/DVLA/Government got it in for them personally, I have to allow for these sensitive and fragile minds

The sad thing is mate people are laughing at you, not with you.
if they're picking on me it means for that moment they're leaving overs alone, mate

- to laugh at me, that explains your need to post here, carry on, mate

we're all mates here, mate biggrin

I expect you've sorted your disc arrangements but just need to check here, just in case you've got it wrong or misheard or misunderstood, more info coming in all the time, well some of the time smile

Here's a couple more things you could try doing for fun as wasting peoples time / causing misdirections seems to be your thing:

. . .
What jolly japes you could have! rolleyes
seems like you're the only one left taking this seriously

missing from your list:
scare stories about ethanol raping our cattle and stealin' our womenfolk
the absolute need for excessive amounts of ZDDP in our oil
the way the EU / Government / DVLA are out to get people like yourself
just about any story from the Daily Fail

I'm sorry you fell for what was literally signed posted, twice, as a joke to help the slow witted like yourself realise it wasn't true

btw, those lead-balls for your petrol tank are in the post and I believe you may be getting some very good news from a Nigerian General too, well, you deserve all the luck you get biggrin

I must say, best thread yet, made simple me laugh.... Though I never did buy those lead balls after finding out how great these are: https://discoverymagnets.co.uk/ecoflow_fuel.htmbiggrin
fantastic! thumbup

I bet there are at least two posters to this thread who'd be very interested in purchasing those

this is what the internet is about, bringing valuable information out that is normally hidden or suppressed by THEM, in this case I'd guess the oil companies, Government and EU for the taxes

I'm getting two for my car to double the savings and sticking it to the oil companies, EU and Government and I expect the DVLA have there finger in this too somehow thumbup

I thought they were just to take static electric from the car but it seems with this additional info another jolly good idea stolen from us by corrupted officials, more dirty dealings from those oil companies, EU, Government and probably DVLA

someone should contact the Daily Fail and give them the story on this
