When I said you. I didn't mean you personally. Although you've more chance than most government inspectors I would have thought.

Just been reading through your link, typically government department complicated. :roll:  Seems I've broken more laws in my time than I previously thought. Off to hide under the bed now.

Fail to see what the issue is providing you're not doing it for any gain, and it's registered to the right person, not stolen etc etc. Number plates a number plate to me.

The Q plate is so that the Insurance companies can pick all of your pockets.

karloss:
That's about right.

muddyweb:
The Q plate has been around for a long time and it was to allow enthusiasts to register road legal vehicles which had been built from kits, etc.

It (theoretically at least) protects car buyers too, as they know the vehicle has been radically altered or rebuilt.

The insurance companies do tend to use it to hike premiums (what's new), which is daft really... the SVA is a far tougher test and the vehicle needs to be in much better condition.

I'd put good money that a high percentage of vehicles owned by MC members wouldn't pass it.

There used to be a bloke living about 30 miles away from me who had a yard and about 20 series landies in there. Every month or so he would make a good one out of all of them and sell it and get some more breakers in and so forth.......
He got busted and spent 18 months inside.
An extremely grey area.
