HI, I am not sure where is best to post this so please move it as you see fit.

Last year at the VW shows we sold a large number of "Autohaus Wolfsburg" number plate surrounds. These prooved very popular amongst VW owners from guys with Beetles, Golfs, T3, T4 , T5, aircooled campers etc.

During the winter season there are much fewer shows to go to and this gives us time to look into new products. We have spoken with the German manufacturer of the number plate surrounds and we can deal directly with them if we order in excess of 100 pairs at a time. Here is the bonus, we can have whatever we want printed on the face of the surrounds.

Here are some T4 / T5 ones we had made up for our own stocks.

What I am trying to assess is if you would like me to have 100 pairs printed up with a mini solgan " youve been Minid! " " aboslutely no German parts were used to produce this Mini!" " one of 1,581,887 British Minis" or whatever YOU would like. All 100 pairs have to be printed the same so you have to agree what would be best


We have been selling these number plate surrounds for £20 per pair at shows and on Ebay. If 100 Brickies want to get together and make a group buy I can supply them for alot less ( around £12 per pair + delivery )

I Just a suggestion but I am open to your ideas. Is there any interest?

If I ever When I get a german car I want a pair of the Autohaus Wolfsburg ones as I love the look of them. However would it be possible to do sn OEM style one for a mini? I don't know whether it would work?..... I'll get thinking ;D

Also especially on here, it will be incredibly difficult to get 100 people to agree on something :lol:

If you guys come up with the design, I can get them printed. The surrounds themselves are top quality and are from the same manufacturer that most German marques use. the wolfsburg ones look like this for those who have not seen them

I'd love one of those with some sort of cheeky slogan on it like '50 year old design, yet still in front of you!'

So you'd have to get 100+ people to all agree on the same slogan?
