GB Oval Sticker

A friend of mine from Belgium sent me an oval GB sticker. Quite nice, color with a flag and seal on opposite sides of the GB. This is not the normal size but smaller, mayber four inches wide. If this were stuck on the boot, where should it go? I guess they don't do this anymore in Europe.

Thanks for the feedback.

The normal thing now is to have European style number plates with your country code written below the European Community stars.

When stickers were used, people stuck them all over the place but I think in general it would be to the left of the number plate.

On the later Rover Minis they had Chrome GB badges which were also in this position.

Those chrome GB letters on the late 90's classic Minis were a retro revival of similar chrome GB letters used extensively back in the 40's, 50's and 60's (especially on the more "posh" cars like Rolls and Bentleys and Jags). They really look nice.

On rally cars and in Sweden they used to stick them on the right rear of the car so you could see it when you got passed.
