Country Stickers: Where To Get Them?

You're not disagreeing with me! In fact, you are confirming my comment and providing extra info. My point is that it depends on the country whether on new plates the EU-style is mandatory. It isn't in the UK, for example, and you confirmed that with the Wikipedia extract (even though I treat Wikipedia information as only preliminary).

(I have the new style on my newer car for two reasons, one being that I don't want a large sticker anywhere on the back.)

Even though the logo is not the one for the car...

Checked out the links. In the first Wikipedia link there is the implication is that the EU country designation is not valid outside the EU, e.g. in Romania.

I wonder if this is enforced, especially among the candidate countries like Romania.

Yes, that's what I also have read from other sources.

In general, I don't think so. But maybe if a local police officer wants some baksheesh...

Yes, I'm not disagreeing with you - should you have had the impression it is my fault.

Yes, exactly. And I wondered it was left to the individual countries and not regulated further by the European Parliament in Brussels.

I also have a non-EU plate on the 240D and have a D oval on a magnetic folio so I can attach it to the trunk when I need it (I don't need that anymore, for going abroad I use other cars).

On my 190 the country sticker is in an upper corner of the (rear) window. I think that turns out to be 'illegal' as it is not near the number plate.

Don't care. Nobody commented when I did go abroad in it and now I go in my other car, e.g. tomorrow, to Rouen.

Such a relatively short distance as the crow flies, but such a long way via the shuttle... :-(
