Sorry, I know it's come up 1000's of times b4, but they seem to keep moving the goalposts.
Just spoken to DVLA to get my V55/5 pack to register the Furore & was told that amongst the other bits & pieces I will need an MoT - I queried this as having just had SVA didn't think it sounded right (& I'm sure I didn't get an MoT last time I did this but that was nearly 4 years ago), went & checked with his supervisor & confirmed I'll need an MoT as it is a rebuilt vehicle (V55/5) not new (V55/4).
Has anyone who's done the registration process RECENTLY please confirm or deny?

no mot required.

did mine 6 months ago and no mot required.
they say its "rebuilt" not new,maybe thats where the problem lies?

Registered mine 6 months ago on age related plate and no MOT required.

Registered mine in September at Nottingham - insisted on MoT

Just spoke to Paul Jepson - the guy who deals with all your paperwork for £35 - have to say he was very helpful seeing as he wasn't earning a penny out of me. He says no MoT required!
His advice is to ignore anything Swansea say & deal purely with your local DVLA ofice!

registered mine in december-no mot needed...mine wasnt rebuilt though...

did mine yesturday as a 'kit conversion' no mot required.
