stoo2000 Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 That's the way It'll have to be done I'm afraid. Get some pictures up ! Just thinking about it though, new cars don't have to be MOT'd till 3 years after they are registered, whats the knack with unregistered shells ?

ScORTED Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 looked into this as its not a new car, just unregistered it has to have an mot, think its if you want a Q plate or with enough docs an age realted number however if you get it sva'd you could have it registered as new although it probably won't pass modern emissions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lirjo Posted April 23, 2009 Author Share Posted April 23, 2009 obviously i need an insurance specialist on this ...i have lots of evidence to get a j reg on it FORD DATING LETTER and i know i can drive legally without number plates as long as its insured and booked in for mot .. why trailer when i can drive its much easier ..

bluliz Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 why trailer when i can drive its much easier .. Because you can't get insurance?? You could even ask the MOT station to collect it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lirjo Posted April 23, 2009 Author Share Posted April 23, 2009 might just get the mot station to do that ..sensible option.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nsd_steve Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 sounds like you need an SVA not an MOT, if its not registered as far as im aware you need a trailer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee_2f2f Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 whats the angle if he A frames it there? Would have thought that was ok? My escort got A framed down here without Tax & Test.... Unless it was illegal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
