This MAY be true but do they really test every bolt??
I would rather find a rusty seized sold bolt that will snap when you undo it than a rounded off bolt that you can't undo.
This is my views but understand evey1 is different.
The op's truck looks very well build but untill close inspection you never know.
If you're interested in it why don't you come and have a look at it! I've had the whole thing closely inspected by my friend who works for a Land Rover specialist who was more than happy with its condition.
I have also checked back through all the history @jai_landrover and I can't find any information on the roll cage. I do however have every MOT since 2005 and can only assume that the work was completed before then? I was also informed by the previous owner that it was mounted through the body on to the chassis, thankfully I've never had to test the theory although it does make a great mount for the bush guards and front/rear spot lights.
I have also done some research into what a "Q" plate stands for and found this;
"If a vehicle has to be rebuilt, say after an accident and many new or used parts have been used that it calls the identity of the vehicle into question, the vehicle needs to be registered on a 'Q' Plate. This is done through the DVLA. It does not mean that there is anything wrong with the vehicle, just that it's original identity cannot be clarified from the parts it is made from (i.e. from different vehicles) "
There is nothing dodgy about the vehicle or the sale. There is a valid V5c form in my name and an MOT showing road-worthiness which is valid until June and also states that there were no advisories. Actually, there are no advisories on any of the MOT's from 2005 apart from 2009 where it needed 2 indicator bulbs as they were showing a little white.
I am selling the vehicle because I want to save for a deposit for a house - a genuine reason for sale I think you'll agree?
