donor car
Hi
i have another question. i have a donor car on the drive. i want to try and obtain if possible the reg plate for my MK. i am not sure if i need to
keep hold of teh car until i complete the build or if i can get rid now and just keep the logbook ect? what is the norm? do the dvla want to see the
donor car or take any details off it?
cheers
Rog

If you use enough parts off of a donor vehicle (engine, gearbox, final drive, brakes, steering column and maybe wiring loom) then you will qualify for
an age related plate. You can not have the same registration as the donor as to do this you would need the donor to 'MOTed' and Taxed to
transfer a 'cherished' plate. Clearly this would not be possibly as the donor is now on/in your 'kit', so it will only be an
age related plate.
Hope this helps.

you wont keep the actual reg number unless you place it on retention and later transfer. If you have the log book you may be given an age reralted
plate
