jason_l Posted November 17, 2009 Author Share Posted November 17, 2009 after all the testing with the dvla and shit does it get registerd with a brand new reg? and will you have to mot it in the first 3 years?Doesn't get registered with a new reg unless i use 100% new parts, so would need a brand new starbo engine If i use a selection of new and donor parts then the reg will be from the donor cars year of manufacture. If i can't supply reciepts for all the main parts i will get a Q reg. There is huge paper trail involved with building a kit car. I need to have v5c from donor, reciepts for all bits, build photo's, IVA paperwork etc etc. This is one of the main reasons i do this build diary to keep on top of the paperwork. And no MOT for 3 years Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They don't care where the engine has came from!!! they only care about engine size. My insurance came out at £195 fully comp Quote Link to post Share on other sites
