Importing a damaged, rebuilt or modified vehicle
If your vehicle has been damaged, rebuilt or modified in another country, DVLA may:
give your vehicle a Q registration number
give your vehicle a new vehicle identification number (VIN)
put a marker on your vehicle log book (V5C) - to show that your vehicle has been altered or assembled using different parts
ask for Individual Vehicle Approval (IVA)
My car was imported with a larger engine, all declared on paperwork, didn't have any issues, didn't need to IVA or do anything out of the norm. I'm sure a more heavily modified vehicle, or with less era correct modifications might attract a little more attention, but I have no experience of that.If your vehicle has been damaged, rebuilt or modified in another country, DVLA may:
