I am a little confuesed with their pricing though, how can 3 letters be £38 and Essex Scooby Crew (15 letters) be the same ?

Did you get a reply back from the manufacturer EmEm ?

They did reply, but only gave me the basic price. I was thinking of just ESC as less is more...!
I will email them again and get a price!! Watch this space!!

ESC ?

Em Surely the idea of these is to link to a web addy ?

ESC.COM Will not direct to here ?

So cannot see the point of just ESC To be honest

Can you advise on the price of either Essexscoobycrew.com Or co.uk As both will get you here

Will do Tiny! I have asked for prices for both, and whether a larger order will get a discount!

I can see your point Tiny, however from a personal point of view, i would like a subtle ESC emblem on the rear of the car for others to see. I know it doesn't relate directly to the site, but most have decals that have the web address on anyway.

I liken it to the black rat stickers, those in the know know what it means without it being too obvious, i would like the same for the ESC emblem....and no, i don't display the Rat !!

Dare I ask about the black rat??

Tiny, if the price comes back good, do you think peeps would be interested? I know I would be!

Tissy, I do agree with what you say...people will ask what ESC is, and the rest will be history, but I also agree with Tiny!!

Will see what £££ comes back as!!

Keep up the good work

mmmmm, Black Rats, how do i explain this one

They are a collective of animals, generally with white tops and black bodies. It has been suggested that they hide in bushes and other forms of shrubbery only jumping out when their prey is near. They can have a less than favourable manners and don't make particularly good pets, however there are exceptions.

One of their main purposes in life is to produce small pieces of paper of various denominations and help to educate other members of the kingdom. One of their worst traits is that they eat there own !!

For those who watch the rats nocturnal activities, they are easily spotted as they fluoresce at night and they can be seen around flashing lights.


Do you think this clarifys it nicely Tiny ?

Yes on the second course & as you say she has a v.good sense of humour.Rosie has the knack of getting serious stuff over without being heavy handed which made learning fun.She took us out in an unmarked volvo for a demo drive which was a real eye opener.It improved my roadcraft no end,as did taking my UK300 on the skid pan.

Dick Grimes was the instructor on the first course.

Got price. For one (up to 20 letters) is £38. For up to 10, £19 each. For up to 20, £17 each. P+P is £7.50 regardless of number of plates (prices are before VAT)

Right who would be interested? I think "EssexScoobyCrew.com" is probably best, as Tiny said, peeps will know what it means, and it costs no more than "ESC". If I do make an order, I will only order what I have been paid for, so please the that order the cheaper it will be!

Anyone...?

Thats what I thought. £38 is pricey, so unless peeps really want them, and I get more than 20 peeps wanting them, it probably ain't worth it! I'll keep looking though for more ideas!!!
