Kit car with V5 old for new engine.

HI EVERYONE.

I WOULD LIKE SOME help or advice on my purchase, I have a chance of aquiring a Haynes Roadster with V5 and reg, correct me if I am wrong but if I put it through the IVA as is with its 2.0 pinto engine when replace said engine with a 2.0 Duratec engine I will then can run it with no Cat? Any other advantages or disadvatages I can't see please enlighten me

If it has got a v5 and a reg number, then surely it's been through either an SVA or IVA already.

You need to check this before buying. You don't want to end up with a ringer

Thanks
Dan

The only v5 I had before SVA was the one for the Sierra. You only get issued with paperwork to apply for a reg number and v5 for your kit / locost after passing these tests.

I don't want you to get your fingers burned

Thanks
Dan

As Dan says, if it needs an iva then the v5 and reg must be off something else, maybe the donor. If the v5 accurately describes the car, and chassis numbers matched, then it doesn't needa test.

Emissions limits are written on the v5 apparently.





Beware! Bourettes is binfectious.

Assuming this is an unfinished and not IVA'd and registered kit, with the documentation supplied with it from the donor...

Once IVA'd and registered, then the MOT emissions requirements stay as at IVA (and are on the new V5) regardless of any later engine change. Only exception is Q reg cars that at MOT are a "visable smoke" test, so again no issue with an engine change.

Make sure you have copies of all the photos and the receipts he might have. They may be needed when you come to register it.
