Doesn't necessarily make it worthless. My 1998 is on a Q plate and it's been valued at £7000.Be carefull you dont end up with a "Q" reg, making your Landrover worthless
Once a vehicle has been allocated a 'Q' plate you will not be able to transfer any other number on to it. DVLA have the Vin numbers of all Q plated vehicles and will not allow it.Since when did "Q" = worthless?
Slap a personalized plate on it and you would be hard pressed to tell which decade it was from.
Same as any vehicle, only worth as much as someone else is willing to pay, good clean motor will sell for what it is worth regardless of reg.
As you know part of the MOT requires the tester to verify the Vin number, what's he going to think if he sees the Vin has been tampered with ? The law requires that every vehicle must have a Vin number.Why would there be a problem with mot ? New chassis's don't have numbers, Lot's of Defender's have Chassis numbers missing or restamped.
He would have the Documents for it to be legal, Kit cars don't have original VIN plates and are road legal

The DVLA send out inspectors who drop in unannounced on MOT stations to check that the testers are carrying out their inspections correctly. So even your friendly local MOT guy in those circumstances will be forced to flag up no Vin or dodgy Vin stamping with the inspector looking over his shoulder.
Land Rover have the Vin numbers stamped in particular places and an MOT tester with Land Rover knowledge will expect to find the Vin there.
Kit cars can have original Vin numbers if enough of the major components of the doner car have been included in the build but these must include the original unaltered chassis or monocoque bodyshell. In their case they will be allowed to retain the original registration number.
