Log book wording issues

O.k., T reg Mk2 Scamp with "Mini car derived van" on the log book and original donor chassis plate on the vehicle. What are the chances on getting the word "Scamp" on the log book? And would you bother as it doesn't just show "Mini" or "Mini Van" and has the word "derived" on the log book?

Any sign of the magic words " Assembled from parts some of which may or may not be new " ?

To my knowledge no. It was a phone call I had from a guy and I said I would put it on the forum to see if any of you out there have had any such issues. It looks like it may be a McLean Mk2 but is using the donor chassis details.

Isn't rick the person to ask on this subject?

Yes you are right, although this guy is not a member and phoned me out of the blue. If you have a recognised kit car club and there is some documentary proof that it is a Scamp, then the club president can verify this to the DVLA. It's just that I wanted to guage opinion on wheather it was worth pursuing, and, as it has taken it's identity from the donor vehicle (i.e. the chassis number and that it is a Mini) wheather he could come unstuck if he approached the DVLA?

Thanks chaps,
I have been away for a couple of weeks, hence the delay.
The guy did ring me at the start of the week, I told him to be very careful in what he sends and does regarding VOSA.
If anyone out there who has owed or knows anything about his Scamp?..I am awaiting the cars details, myself, to help him along the route of
Mr VOSA..
I will keep you posted on the situation, as there are a lot of you having interest..
Take care Rick.

Has anyone sent the details to Rum Tum Tugger to check through his archive?

Is this good? as mine is listed so and with a Q plate. I thought it would be better to be listed as a scamp?

Yes especially with a Q plate as it shows it's a kit car. Having it listed as a Scamp would be belt and braces but you've got the important bits and generally the DVLA is a dog best left undisturbed!
