You need the V5 as evidence that you have used at least 2 major components (including engine) from your donor to get an age related plate, just make sure it's SORN.

I'm sure I'll be corrected if wrong but pretty sure that's right.

You can still scrap the car, just keep the V5. Be sure to remove all traces of the cars identity though by removing number plates and VIN plates etc, just to make sure no-one attempts to claim the V5 from DVLA.

If you aren't too concerned whether you get an age related plate or a Q plate, then you could just scrap the car and send the V5 back to DVLA informing them. Having no V5 will get you a Q plate.

Dont forget to SORN it





If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation
