Road Tax Security

[Guest mikelmg]

I am in the process of registering my new Superspec and am looking forward to getting it on the road. Has anyone had any problems with road tax discs being removed (stolen) from parked Hoods? If so, is there a recommended secure tax disc holder?

[Guest Ian & Carole]

We have a motorcycle tax disc holder, one that is bolted together.

 

As you can see it is bolted to the screen pillar.

 

You need an allen key and spanner to remove.

 

Still stealable but fairly secure.

No one would steal that one Ian it's expired

I use the same type as Ian, been on for 5 years no problem

I have the same style but mine is attached to the bottom of the windscreen mount/triangle

I also use the bike type same as the others on my2b also used it on my bike and never had one stolen in 15yrs from my bikes

 

Not full proof but enough to stop an opportunist

Same here bike type. I worry more about pay and display tickets try to see the vulture ( warden ) if about and get them to see it in car in case the wind or someone takes it

[Guest mikelmg]

Thanks, guys, that seems unanimous.

[Guest shaggy]

Thanks, guys, that seems unanimous.

 

I know of one owner who refuses to put one on his car. He insists instead that its kept in the mrs's handbag

I normally take a pic of it with the camera on my phone. to prove it was there when I left

[Guest pwlcarz]

I use the motorcycle one for the tax disc, but I've bought a 'magnetic' tax disc holder for parking tickets.

 

This is a thin magnetic ring which sticks to the windscreen and there is a thin metalised cover which attaches to it.

Slide the cover off, pop the parking ticket inside and re-attach the cover.

 

Not perfect but stops the ticket blowing away and is not quite so obvious to the opportunist.

[Guest salty_monk]

Bike one for me too....

 

I usually take a picture of parking ticket on car with phone & another close up showing ticket in same spot with date.....

[Guest gdc]
