When I was at Silverstone Classic I picked this up from one of the stalls, was actually looking for a GT40 but this took my fancy instead, but the price sticker on the roof looks like it's been on for ages as the glue is hard.
Is there any way of getting it off without scratching it
The car's not perfect as there are small scratches on the engine cover and side screens, but I would like to get this off without scratching it.

Lighter fluid; a wonderfully inert solvent which, in my experience, has always been paint and plastic safe. That blob will need a little soak but should soften and then wipe away with a soaked rag. The fluid evaporates super quick so one has to keep applying.
Bit of car wax on the windows and body and it'll sparkle.

Sticker remover spray. Google it. Generally made from oranges! Works really well.
