Anyone still sad enough ...

[sethlj]

... to still have their Le Mans parking and camping passes still stuck on their windscreen.

I have

If last year is anything to go by the baked on glue is a pig to remove.

'Fraid so...

Got married the week after and have only just got back from honeymoon, wash car and clean out Le Mans mung is on my list of things to do when I have a few minutes to catch a breath.....

[DustyC]

thats just sad.

(Still have mine too!)

[rviant]

I must be really sad or just plain lazy. Got last years one still on as well as this years

[vetteheadracer]

Doh! Me too! and yes the glue is a pig to remove, I usually do mine with a razor blade.

[thunderace]

Er, still got this year's Beausejour on the VX220 . . . . .

and last year's Houx on the Astra.

Do I win the saddo prize ?

[Alf Essex]

I've kept my drivers parade entry sticker on

The glue is an absolute bugger to get off. I eventually got round to taking the pass out, but not the glue as yet, and i still have my Le Mans stripes adorning the bodywork!! They were only supposed to be for LM.

[stigproducts]

I have still got my Parade de Pilots sticker on from 2002, I have got a feeling if I wanted to take it off I would have some serious problems. Still looks as good as the day I put it on! These french, they make em to last!

PS. Considering the passes are the same every year with just the last digit of the year changing who's up for blagging a place in the parade next year.....!

I got a new windscreen fitted - much easier than trying to get the glue off!

Someone I went to LeMans with successfully used last years parking permit.
So I have carefully removed mine and filed it for next year.

That’s not sad that’s cheap skate.

I have realised how to use one ticket to get more than one car in, which may be useful. We won't be taking up any more camping, just having the ability to get about more easily when staying in a motorhome.

[HarryW]

Yep sadder than a sad lazy thing me, haven't taken this years off and still have the twin glue stripes from last years one .
Removing the glue comes under the same dilema of 'clean it/drive it' every time .

[chris_freebie]

White_van_man still has ours on his car.... and Ian (TVR_MAN I think) has this years and last years on his celica !!! last years completly faded of course but the Houx one still nice and green !

[pete]

Well mine's still on the Griff. Too lazy to spend valuable driving time cleaning it off!

For anyone struggling with getting old glue and bits of paper off the screen, oil of eucalyptus and a razor blade remove it in no time.

Great, I'm not the only one!

Can get out of the closet now.

[tony_996hasgone]

....and another one here as well!

...and until last week I still had the Le Mans dust and flies....

Still got mine. Still got the dust too. But it's on the top of loads of Autoglym-should come off easy.

Mate had 3yrs running on his 911. He nearly cried when he had to have a new windscreen.

[Piglet]

Still got this years, was going to scrape it off but picked up dirty great crack in the windscreen and am awaiting a new screen so can't see much point in expending the effort!!!

The polish&wax brigade will kill me but there's nothing sexier then a car covered in dust and dead flies after being used. Kill bugs fast!
