Quite interesting if you do a DVLA vehicle check.

This one comes up as the 1.8 engine, many others on here still say 2l.  :lipsrsealed:

Too much spare time on you hands?... Are you a curtain twitcher?  :grin:

Hmmmm, I wonder which ones!?... Damn it, I'm as bad as you now!

Did it in my tea break. Not to be a sneaky b!tch just genuinely interested to see if the DVLA change it that's all. :)

Oh so not to see which ones had not been declared.  :rolleyes:

You should be OK so long as you don't drive it on the road or lie to your insurer by telling them its a 5L V8 when it's not.

Yep mine is all done by the book and it's a good job it is too as mr policeman checked

I had to send dvla proof, they asked who had fitted it, and seen as it was myself I had to then get a garage to report it was a 1.8 petrol and then send the DVLA the original copy which they kindly returned. Took a couple of weeks to do but I just wanted everything legit.
DVLA even have my engine number on the V5 now too

Thank the lord I never fitted one of the many (but cheap) stolen engines I was offered.

Why thank the Lord? Surly it would never have crossed your mind.
