Good advice John

If you have had a new engine or short motor fitted to your car, have you changed the engine number on your V5 reistration document.
If the police stop you and check the details of your car, you could spend the night in the knick if you forgot to do this.

If you come to sell the car a buyer may walk away if the numbers dont match.

It is an offence to not inform the DVLA of any material changes on the car, the engine number is one of the most important!!

cheers john

 

Had my engine changed end of last year due to piston slap and I did remember to change the log book. Good advive anyway.

 

John, I take it this doesnt mean you have just spent the night in nick cos you forgot and the message is in hindsight

 

no ian, just thinking ahead

 

Glad to hear it
