Hi Guys

I am fairly new to this site, I'm not sure if this is in the right section if not sorry.

I have a few questions regarding my engine change on my 2.5td 90. I put a 200tdi Discovery engine in, since I have had it back form the garage I've not put it on the road.

1- How do I go about informing the DVLA of the change?

2- Is the cylinder Capacity (cc) the same?

3- Would it now class as a modified vehicle?

4- When the V5 is complete and I go to get insurance, Do i need to inform the insurance company that it is a different engine to the original one?

Any help would be appreciated.

1- How do I go about informing the DVLA of the change? Send the v5 to them with new engine number unless the original v5 only says 2.5 diesel

2- Is the cylinder Capacity (cc) the same? yes

3- Would it now class as a modified vehicle? to insurance, yes, as you have a lot more hp

4- When the V5 is complete and I go to get insurance, Do i need to inform the insurance company that it is a different engine to the original one? yes

Any help would be appreciated.

When did they close?

I thought that the are closed between October till April. Well there are some signs up near mine stating that. I may be wrong.

Simple bit on the V5 just put the new engine number on it, If its a disco its on the top of the block on the right hand side as you look at it.

As for ther lanes they might be a TRO Temporary Restriction Order, Designed to stop heavy damage to the lanes, Brownie point there for abaying them

What happens if you get caught driving down them when they are meant to be out of action?

It is a Legal road so guess it would be the same as driving down a road that had closed on it for road works or fuzz , I have heard of people saying you can have the vehicle seized and fined but not 100% but would say a Fine would the be least.
