My V5c has a Make (field D1) of VOLKSWAGEN, I'd like to change that to Nova.
I believe my car is ~unusual in that when it was first built in 1980,
it was registered as a new vehicle with a 'W' (i.e. 1980) Reg.
(the Beetle donor car was an earlier L reg).
The V5c Special Notes says:
1. REBUILT - ASSEMBLED FROM PARTS SOME OR ALL OF WHICH WERE NOT NEW.
...which I think implies that the car is a special, i.e. not a single make vehicle.
But I'm not sure if that makes any difference to anything...
I have some paperwork from 1980 which shows the car was built, insured & MOT'd, back then,
so the failure to change the Make to Nova, was an oversight.
So if I supply DVLA with evidence that the car was built as a Nova from day 1, and ask them to change the Make accordingly, what could possibly go wrong?
