Very cool 8) Hoping the original owner of mine will be able to find the first couple of tax discs for the car, got them all from 1978-2011 but nothing before then

Very cool 8) I nearly said something about paying Â£7 for a tiny disc of paper but then I remembered I pay Â£215 a year for one as it is :roll:

That's nothing mate!! My old 555 light weight impreza was Â£400 per year !! Still it looked good next to the E39 M5 that was also Â£400!!

Mind you my insurance is a grand per year, but that is a bargain for someone my age

I got mine from the same guy.
Only thing to be picky about it, is the tax disc is not punched around the outside edge. So I made a cutter and went round mine before carefully cutting it out so it looked even more like the real thing :shock:

Damn youngsters lol,
wait till you get old Josh Insurance Â£69.80p + legal and agreed value

and yea you have to cut the tax discs out but easily done with a pair of nail sissors and some time.
