Official discs had to
be displayed behind glass, and be clearly visible from the front of the vehicle. For a car, this was usually the left hand bottom corner of the windscreen. Motorcycle tax discs were generally displayed in a purpose made glass fronted holder mounted on the left hand side of the machine. Older bikes usually used the left headlamp mounting bolt. You can purchase motorcycle and car disc holders from this website - see link above.

It has always been legal to use a vehicle on the road using a reproduction disc (apart from a reproduction of an official one of course), but a current one had also to be shown, as in the picture Now the current tax disc has been abolished, things are much better - only one disc needed!

One of my customers, Alan Goff made a
great job of restoring this Triumph Tiger Cub. He had the current disc on the left hand side, with an additional holder for the 1963 reproduction one on the right.
