age related plate?
im looking to build a MK Indy R.
am i right in thinking (after a bit of research) that to get a age related plate (Ie 10) you must use all new parts, and have reciepts for them
all?
otherwise you have to have a Q plate?
if so what do you do about engine/diff/hubs/steering rack Etc?
or have i got this wrong?
cheers,
matt

You get an age related plate by using a donor vehicle and using the 5 major components such as engine, gearbox, drive train, steering etc. Its based
upon a points system which you will find on the VOSA web site you will also need a V5 too.
Donors are usually a Sierra but MX5 is becoming more popular.
This gets you an age related plate same year as the donor.
A Q plate is on the same basis but with no V5
A new car is made from new ALL new parts - chassis, body, engine etc all which are available.
An one refurbed part as he says below

You need all new major parts except one that can be recondition (as new)
THe major components are:
Chassis/Body
Axles
Transmission
Steering Assembly
Engine
Suspension
Any further documentation of new parts used will aid the registration

You have three options available;
1. A new registration - As Loggyboy suggests
2. An age related plate, based on the age of the donor vehicles V5 (If you have it) ie, a G reg Sierra will get you a G prefix plate but not the same
numbers and letters. To qualify for this you need to use 2 of the following components;
Chassis/Body Shell
Axles
Transmission
Steering Assembly
Engine
Suspension (front and back)
3. A 'Q' plate - using parts of an un-determinable origin, such as a vehicle with no V5 or parts sourced independently.
