Tax Disc Holder

Post by coopertim »

Hi all

Can anyone tell me if Appleyards Bradford issued new cars with branded tax disc holders or rear window advertising stickers? If so, do any still exist or is there any way of getting them reproduced?

Cheers. Tim.

Appleyards certainly did key fobs - got one kicking about somewhere. I'll try and find it and post a picture.

Thanks for that Simon.

You don't want to part with it do you? It would go lovely with my Appleyards 1071 S!!

Ps I was only reading the piece in Mini World today from years ago with you, Tony Fall and Peter Barker with the Ex Works cars!!

Apps did do tax disk holders & rear window stickers too. They were the big dealership reond here for many many years.

Sadly I don't have any examples in my collection though.
