I THINK - based on no evidence whatsoever - that tax brackets these days are set according to emissions, so changing the engine size
won't help at all, especially when the replacement is a crossflow. But then, I may be talking a load of fetid dingoes kidneys, so I suggest a
trawl on the DVLA website.

The older cars is still under the older way of the engine size.. The emissions stand for cars after 2000..

You hav eto give the DVLA some sort of proof that the new engine is actually under 1400cc, but I'm not sure what constitutes proof. Seem to
remember reading about an engineers report but may be wrong. No problems going the other way of course!!

I sent a letter from my local friendly MOT man along with the log book, he stated in the letter that xxxx cc engine with xxxx engine number was
installed and running in the car with chassis number xxxx and used his crimped stamp on the letter, got log book back with new engine nunber and cc.

Probably because of the particulates in Diesel exhaust.
