Hi guys
Wondered if you could help me?
I MAY be going to view a 997.1 over the weekend that's had an engine block change.

What's the situation with the DVLA docs in terms of is there a legal requirement to update the V5 so numbers match?

Also, does anyone the process and how difficult this is?
Anything else to consider?

Thanks in advance

A couple of weeks ago when our XF was done 'Guy Salmon Jaguar' gave me a letter to send to the DVLA along with my V5 stating that they had fitted a new engine and gave the engine number.

They said that was all I had to do.

You've just reminded me to send it off. :thumbs:
 
The biggie is the VIN..In the grand scale of things the engine number is irrelevant!..at least in the eyes of DVLA!!!
 
Thanks guys, sounds like I need to get the garage that did the engine swap to put it i writing, then I can get V5 changed.
Just really wanted to make sure I wasnt missing something :thumb:
