Default Oxford tax disc holder:

Is s***. Got the round one last year, and apart from leaking pretty badly, it just more or less dissolved when I went to put in the new disc. 5 of the 6 bolts sheared off... So I've got a nice chunky Oberon one now.

Yeah, I only put mine on the old bike in March and when I opened it again in July, one of the bolts had corroded badly and sheared off when undoing it... that'll be why it was £4 in the bargain bin then

Ah, well, if it was £4 that's not so bad- you could get one every year for the next 5 and it'd still be the same as the Oberon

But the Oberon will probably last more than 5 years...

I have a design for a tax disc holder that should be water proof I just haven't had time to draw it up.... plus I wasn't sure there would be a point as I felt they would be dropped.

A year on... Just changed my disc, and it's exactly the same as it was the day I fitted it, it's never even been damp. Very impressed. And no sheared bolts
