Pretty sure this should be on a Q plate:

Can't see how it can retain the original identity. Needs an IVA I would think as well.

Interesting matter. The owner maintains it has been approved by the DVLA. I like you am somewhat doubtful in view of the extent of the changes. I would have thought IVA would be required. Apparently not. http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a...

Unless it was built quite a while ago possibly? If it was done recently then it immediately falls foul of the points rules due to its heavily modified monocoque.832ark said:

If it was done recently then it immediately falls foul of the points rules due to its heavily modified monocoque.The workmanship on ths car dose seem to be very good indeed. Only a full scale examination of the car and the paperwork could establish the reality of the situation. On balance, after thinking about this for some time, I am inclined to accept the word of the OP in the circumstances. May well be paperwork and documentary evidence which the DVLA have accepted. This wouold explain the result.
I no longer buy unfunished, unseen and unstarted kit cars personally whereas in years gone by I have bought them in significant numbers, without paperwork, registration and so on. I no longer do this because of the number of obviously questionable kit cars there are about nowadays.
The number of Barn find Locosts/Locusts/Robin Hoods etc with Dutton/Ginetta or similar identities grafted on with VIN plate/registration plates added appearing on the internet tells its own story I think. Considerable caution needs to be exercised in examining all kit cars nowadays because there are a lot of cars about (in kiit car terms) that are not the full shilling at all.

That's almost the same as the one my mate bought. I hope this one doesn't turn out out to have a stolen engine. Its also still a 525i on the Irish tax book and the engine has now been fitted 3.5 years.

Nightmare car best avoided. Illegal OTR, uninsured and very probably unsafe in use. Daft price for a pile of scrap. Getting such cars properly registered is no longer easy at all. If indeed actually possible.

Perhaps the saddest part is the utter disinenguous ramblings in the advert itself. Illegal in use on the road, liable to be ofroaded if spotted by the Police, running nitrous, totally uninsurable on the road and very probably utterly unsafe because of the wholly inadequate underpinnings using a car never designed for this kind of weight and power.Avoid absolutely must be the only approach.

Another one that I wouldn't touch with a barge pole for the sake of a stamp.
