79x100 Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 It's not a new thing but a year or so back, DVLA began to interpret the long-standing rules differently whilst at the same time claiming that nothing had changed. https://www.gov.uk/vehicle-registration/reconstructed-classic-vehicles It's really for vehicles built from autojumble spares that have never previously been together. The term 'rebuilt' is best avoided when dealing with DVLA as well. Most enthusiasts view it as taking apart, painting and putting back together again but DVLA's most recent interpretation seems to suggest that they view the term 'rebuilt' almost as remanufacturing.

andym Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 The title of this thread had me initially wondering why anyone would think the DVLA was a reconstituted classic ... :nut: Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
