Hi all

I'm taking my car to the continent, and I don't have the GB symbol on my number plates. I'll therefore need a separate one. Which will cause less damage to my paintwork - a sticker or a magnet?

Thanks

David

I'd go for the magnetic one, David, as it's easier to remove (and can be re-used). Just make sure the surface is clean, before sticking it on.

I agree with Jürgen if you don't want it on there permanently use a Magnetic one.
The sticker ones can have glue on so watch what you are purchasing.

Totally agree with Jürgen and John. I have used a magnetic one for the last six years with no ill effects.

In MS Word you hold down CTRL + SHIFT + : (colon) and then type the letter but doesn't seem to work on here.

You could just try copying an pasting his name from a quote???
