OK heres the scoop,

I'm building an MK Indy

I have a 1.8 doner sierria for gearbox etc but not engine.

I have an 1.6 XR2 engine - from a mates car, he changed his engine. I know the reg but he's sold the car.

I can get a reciept to say I bought the engine from original vehicle. i.e proving its not nicked

Will SVA man accept this as proof of age?

I might be able to get a "copy" of the v5. to show where the engine originally came form - would this help.

The engine doner car is on the road with a 18.l zetec engine instead of its original 1.6cvh. I don;t know if the v5 was ever updated to show new engine. I'm am not the owner of the engine doner vehicle.

A receipt to show it is not nicked is a good idea.

For proof of age you give the engine number to ford technical who fax or post you a confirmation.
