I’ve just bought an ex mod defender wolf got the release papers and filled in the registration docs. Sent off to DVLA who returned them saying I had missed out a few bits of information. To be fair I only had the release papers and not yet received the vehicle. However DVLA are saying I haven’t provided a mot certificate. The vehicle needs work before it goes for mot but how do you mot a vehicle that’s not registered.

It is a long time ago, but I got an MOT on a bike which wasn't registered. The frame number was used to identify it. Got it insured on the frame number as well, so it could be ridden to the MOT garage.

I got my Shorland MOTed just on the chassis number, in order to then register it. That was about 35 years ago so don't know if things have changed.

When i built my kitcar i used enough of the donor car to qualify to use that reg number but before i could register it i had to get it inspected with a 'super MOT' at a DVLA test station. I had to insure it using the chassis number. Once it passed the inspection i was officially given the reg number.
