    It would stop the casual passer by from taking a closer look, so it will have an effect. And if the car is parked up in a side street ANPR is unlikely to be an issue.

    You do realise that having a tax disc in the window makes you no less likely to get caught these days?

    Yes, but I have a very nosey neighbour! I had two cars, one which failed its MOT and the new which I had bought to replace it. The replacement came with no tax so to avert a casual glance I swapped the disk over on a Saturday which is when the MOT ran out on the old one and got to the Post Office on the Monday to make it legit.

    He actually looks at all the cars on the road and reports them if there is anything wrong, all very well until he gets to your car.
