    2022 Discovery SDV6 HSE Lux Santorini Black

    I got mine done by the dealer bodyshop when having some rear-end work done after a van hit me up the back. I asked if they could arrange for it to 'snap' when they took it off, and then replace with a UK flag one. They were most obliging!

    Although they gave me an EU flagged variety, which I have never had on my car and never wanted! Had to point out they weren't permitted (this was March '22!), and could I please have a Union Jack version!!! It was swapped over 5 mins later!

    You can buy them as stickers (flee bay or Amazon), they come as a set, one yellow and one white background. Don’t forget one for your van too. We are currently in France (awful weather), the stickers were all still in place when I last looked 😂. You won’t need the awful oval UK sticker…..

    I have several of the European ones from over the years wish is a shame as they may be used
    Dealer currently doesn’t do the larger one for the rear of the D5 so been looking on line
    Want a decent quality one but they range in price from £20 to over £70 just for the rear so was looking for recommendations as to who people have used.
    Thanks for the replies so far

    If you have a UK-plate on the rear (which is where you'd put a UK sticker), is that enough?

    I just have a plain white plate on the front, no UK or EU flag. But given you only need to display a sticker on the rear of a car, I figured you only needed to change one plate. Correct?!

    Anyone stuck one of these or similar on their rear plates?

    Travelling to Disneyland Paris shortly and just want something short term. We don't plan on driving abroad a lot and don't want to get one of those massive oval stickers.

    Yes - see post above. They are still stuck on but the ones I bought are small relative to the rear plate size and don’t look good but neither does the offset number plate position, both of which I can’t see when I am driving 👍

    Missed that. I was a bit worried about them looking silly (although you have a good point about not being able to see them), and also whether they would be acceptable in France. But if you've used them without issue sounds like a no brainer to me. Thanks.
