Yes White Rose took over the JC Midge but it did not last long. As you say nothing like a Seven and this car is a real nonsense. Textbook identity swap. Avoid. It will get found out and when it does game over.
Just did a bit of digging - White Rose also took over the Locust, apparently.LLantrisant said:
Another complete nonsense which is not correctly registered hence the M/C engine is not apparent In the paperwork and thenpaperworknis notbrelevant tobthisvcarbin that form. I would expect this to be picked up and VOR'd. The use of scrapped kit car identities with uncorrected registration docs to evade IVA is clearly growing steadily. Pity but that was always the danger of introducing an expensive and exacting testing process. Avoid.Cliftonite said:

Another example of cars to avoid. To get this properly registered in this form will be an absolute expensive nightmare. The registration of heavily modified cars has become very much more exacting post the IVA process being introduced. Such cars are no longer economically worthwhile IMO unless you want to run an illegal uninsurable vehicle and run every risk of being pulled and VOR'd on the spot. The fact is that such cars would be extremely difficult to register.The days of barn finds, garge discoveries and the like all of which nowadays seem to have become invariably simple try ons. Without real provenance and genuine paperwork for the changes and the components used such cars are unregistered because they cannot be registered in that form and the pundits offering such nonsenses know this full well. There was a time in the past where I regularly bought unfinished projects to finish them years ago.
You could now then: you cannot now and enthusists should be really careful in ensuring all the paperwork and provenance of modified cars offered for sale is absolutely spot on or walk away. There is to feasible way to register such unrecorded changes if the paperwork is absent and the provence of the parts ia absent. Fact of modern kit car and project building life. Best avoided in my opinion.

Brand new shell, new engine, new running gear, new interior, new brakes, new wheels, basically a brand new car.

At least the engine and colour have been declared. The car should be on a "Q" or new registration though as there isn't enough of the original car to be a "Heritage" build. Date of first registration 04 June 1964

I do wonder how this has been achieved. From the information proffered in the article I cannot see how this reg has been achieved. It would be very interesting ro know just how this was done. I think the price is unrealistic.Brand new shell, new engine, new running gear, new interior, new brakes, new wheels, basically a brand new car.

Very sorry to hear that. I have lost a number of cars over the years to car theft. If the miscreants are organised and determined it s very difficult to prevent such acts.
I do hope the car s returned and without much damage. Unusual choice a Landrover, but it clearly was an unusual car. I wish you all the luck in recovering the vehicle. Barstards!

I think Land Rovers are quite a high theft risk, probably due to the ease in breaking them for parts.
Not to mention the number of chassis with log books or just VIN and V5C's for sale. They are the easiest car to ring as they all pretty much look the same. All it would take is a £60 set of door locks, tin of NATO green paint and this car is rung.
