I am holding onto mine until October. Currently we have to display tax and mot discs. So at the moment, I have a double holder. Come October, it will be club holder, displaying the mot :-)

Nice one Klarzy. In the recent past I've done faux bank notes for a Ford and a Jaguar insurance promotion and have lots of lovely watermark stuff, plus a few ideas for making these look Tax Disc-like but have a MGR 'watermark' effect and even Union flag/Chequered flag elements embedded in there too. Some appropriate tyopgraphy and I think it will look the biz. Permission to 'have a go' lol!

For obvious reasons these would have to be by individual order (as they'll have details like reg. no. specific to the car) so there's no reason we couldn't do a selection of colour-ways. (A la original Tax Discs)...

Absolutely

I like to get involved; I do sponsorship graphics as well as the plaques for our Citroen events/rallies etc.

End of the tax disc is the end of a motoring era. My screen will remain clear from any add on's. Not even a fan of window stickers either.

Likewise to be honest. I quite like a single discreet club sticker or similar, but I can't wait to bin my tax disk and holder!

Although I have to have a badge in the screen for work too, it drives me nuts, a massive square bit of paper with 10 digits of text in the middle...
