windshield stickers

[brewskie]

Hey Folks,

During our freezing rain storm last week, I needed to spend a fair bit of time scraping the windshield. During this process I had a good look at the various stickers. I hadn't really paid much attention to them before. The sticker in the top passenger corner indicates either road tax or parking (can't remember which). The big number in the center is 20 meaning 2008 I believe and the small number is 7 meaning July? The Shaken sticker just above the rear view mirror has the small number 21 and large number 7. I am assuming that 21 would indicate 2009 if 20 is 2008.......If this is correct then would my van if still living in Japan be considered under shaken until July 2009?

When Mardy brought my van in last summer he could tell it had been well maintained in Japan.

cheers Rob

It's a Japanese motor vehicle sticker. The small seven is the month and the big twenty was the current year of the Japanese emperor.
