Hi,

If i have a car with a 4 cilinder engine and i want to swap it with a V6 do i need to get my registration changed, and if so what are the actions i need to take?

Cheers,
Sebastian.

Just send off the registration document to the DVLA stating the new engine number and capacity + tell your insurance company.

No need for anything else, MOT's etc.

Difficult question that is , as we dont know the laws regarding vehicles in Holland, if you lived in the UK it would be as Mark said.
