These were ones Ian and I had made up before the FWC show, they are 24" long and 10" high, these are also NOT the cheap 'V??ta Print' ones that scratch and peel as these have a clear-coat top layer (as used by taxis etc) to give them a longer life, good strong magnet so wont slide/come off. Not cheap, but then again quality doesnt come cheap, as we paid £40 a pair from a friend of ours but they are a quality piece of kit.

If you want some then let me know, but the P and P may be a bit pricey as they are heavy but maybe able to meet up or take to Windex in March!

Bumping this up.

As I am trying to build my round up and therefore my cashflow, I need to put a couple of magnetic signs on my estate car.  Where is the best to get these from for quailty/price?

Regards

Hi Guys
What speed have you travelled at and they were still on at the end of the journey?
We have a couple we don't bother with anymore as we aren't searching for any more customers. Did have someone once complain that you can't travel above 60MPH with them on, but then I suppose that depends on how streamlined the car is - van would probably be different.
We always used to take them off before travelling, but before long we 'forgot' to put them on at all
