Genuinely, as I said before, if you do an engine swap only and don't modify the original frame, wheels and suspension, all you need to do is notify the DVLA of a change of engine number. Send it in with a letter from the MOT station stating vehicle vin ABC123 is now fitted with engine number DEF456. Swansea drone sees the form, types in the numbers, new V5 comes back.
Theere are insurers who specialise in heavily modified vehicles. I use bikesure, all the mods on my 612 enfield are fully declared to them (exhuast, brakes, suspension, engine, bodywork. Basically the only thing not modified is the frame.). My mate has an Ural running with a 1.9 passat turbo diesel in it, this is also done via bikesure. You phone them up, tell them what you have and send in photos, they do you a quote.
My insurance is fairly spendy at £450 comp but there are four bikes on it including the pimped one which is on an agreed value. Also includes euro recovery, even for the >25 year old ones. Perversely, the little Minsk 125 is the "main" bike now, apparently the highest risk out of a highly tuned enfield bullet, bullet trials bike and VFR750. ____________________ “Rule one: Always stick around for one more drink. That's when things happen. That's when you find out everything you want to know.”
I did the 2010 Round Britain Rally on my 350 Bullet. 89 landmarks, 3 months, 9,500 miles. |
