    Not had a go myself yet but I like the top one chris, seems to hide well the vast amount of text wanted.

    it’s ok Rich,

    Chris’s 2nd design is about as close to what i had in mind as i think i could show you ! i hadn’t thought of the flooded area behing the rear arch, but the general layout is how i would approach it,

    Well, here’s my quick take on it, a little altered, not much.

    I would use your influence as a professional signmaker to urge them to cut down on the text.
    Why do they need their complete address on the car? Is it also a mailbox?
    The phone number should be limited to their main one, as I’m sure when someone calls it a receptionist can direct the call.
    Here’s a quick play with what you have. They grey oval is of course their logo.
    I’m not keen on your font, and would switch it to Impact.
    Love….Jill

    yes less busy but for a van that size still far too much, spect you could park it at picnic sites, etc for people who have no newspaper to read 😳 sorry
