What do you think ?

as you don't have to display a tax disc anymore I thought it would be cool to get a replica one that would of been on the car when new, I'm a bit tight and didn't want to pay so I found a picture online and cleaned up the pixilation up with photoshop which took hours lol I think it looks cool, I'm sure I'm not the first to do this but thought I would share

[colr6]

Think it's quite common on the classic car scene to do it, well done on the copying good move

[steved35]

I like it

[bigdaz27]

The site I went to wanted £7 I thought that was expensive for a bit of paper, I'm sure it would of been better quality but no ones going to notice, well apart from you lot as I told you lol

[colr6]

Don't suppose anyone is going to scrutinise a tax disc, unles there is an anorak tax disc collector out there!

i did one just like it for my anglia, i copied a dec'61 one as my anglia was first reg'd june '61, but you could buy 4, 6 or 12 months tax back then so there is a choice of dates .

I have one in my car, the wife got it for me and had it dated to replicate the original expiry of its 1st tax, ie 1 year after the cars 1st registration.

Looks good, you need an osf tax disc holder to finish it off? Should be on commission! Hehe

You hiking for a day job Paul?

Yep I've had one in the Mex for a few years....real one hidden behind lol

Done the same Google Image search and 'borrowed'

I've got one on mine. Bought mine though. Thought £6 was cheap! Came with the reg, year and place of first registration too.

im torn as to buying one, as the car no longer has its original registration

the car was bought in 2011/2 (have to pull paperwork out for the exact year) just for the purpose of removing its original plate and fitting it to a motorcycle

thats the part that really annoys me, dont think it should be allowed personally, but thats life

so if i fit a tax disc with the current reg no, it wont really be right

 

what r your thoughts

[bigdaz27]

one site I looked at wanted £25 lol

[HotRodMatt]

I think someone on ebay who does them even puts a correct Post Office stamp for the town/area. Which is a nice touch.

I say ding dong.com is worth a look.

Very cheap period stickers and tax disc lookalikes.

Cool idea, still got a few of my originals, might take some copies and see how they turn out.
