I shall do, and I shall also stop looking for the GTV's tax disc Silly curved windscreen meant the thing kept falling off anyway

Leaving mine in and being retro

Might copy one from the first date of registration and stick that in the windscreen!
Everyone will think it's out of date then

Can we presumably now make our own childish lookalike ones to amuse / confuse people?

Having one with Renault Clio on for Le Mans may help further confuse some grenouilles

Given that most people have no idea what make/model our cars are and that many have debadged altogether, what are the chances of parking enforcement bods being unable to write a ticket because they can't identify our cars?

I once had a pcn that stated only 'Vauxhall' because that was read from the tax disc. The only other marking was HSV wheel caps and steering wheel badge.

Go one better, print off a Lancia Thema Owners Club roundel, slip it in the tax disc holder, let them write it out for a Lancia Thema instead.

Couldn't have been me officer, my car is a Vauxhall!

Popped a parking permit in mine last night, ready for the drive to work this morning. No parking permit flying around the windscreen now.

I renewed mine on my run around for the year last night.
Removed the holder & wrote on the screen in black marker pen "Robbing bds"

On Monday the 22nd I bought a 64 Reg Astra to do the motorway miles to work...

The Tax disc arrived in the mail today ????

It's an A4 sheet with a photocopied pic of a tax disc at the bottom....

Was it really worth it

suppose I could frame it as it is one of the last

Discs removed from all 4 cars last night - now enjoying the use of a full windscreen. Bet bikers will be pleased they always faded and got filthy attached to the rear of bikes.
