Don't worry about it. The paperwork is all straight as far as the authorities are concerned so just enjoy it. Don't confuse yourself with facts!
Somehow missed that in all the posts.Yeah except the engine number.
Cheers
Sounds like a posh bird’s minge.foo foo valve
Has the OP found the engine number yet?
EDIT: googled it engine number on V5 is 200TDI

Still an engine change is one you are allowed to do, so if he says he's changed the engine and gives them the new number they won't turn a hair. All they care about is when someone wants to change to a smaller engine (number) to try and pay lower road tax. I knows it cos I have stuck a 1275 engine in a 950 mini. No one gave a fu ck. They just updated the V5 or whatever it is called this week.

Before my time! I’ve just Googled her/him. Definitely not!You never saw foo foo Lamar or you wouldn't have thought posh bird
Have to admit I cannot remember how long ago it was but it wasn't that long ago, and it was in a vehicle that often did have that engine type, so maybe that was why I had no probs. Coopers of the time ran with them. All you could do would be to ring them and ask, "I'd like to change my engine, what would be involved as far as you are concerned?" before going any further.Yep as I wrote earlier.
When was this?, some have had issues in the last few years needing engineers reports etc from what I have heard. I did not and like you just changed the number from a 19J to a 300tdi. But I would be wary.

We used to call them “Rilfs”, as in “Milfs”, but with rowers. Them were the days.You would know more na me as the female Nordic rowing teams usually frequent the Regatta
Don't spend any money on it. THAT IS A RINGER, no if's or maybe, THAT IS A RINGER.
It is a TD5, complete with rear tank and the stamped chassis number was definitely NOT stamped at Solihull.
Ignore the random theories, IT IS A RINGER.

IMO the only way to be100% sure it's a ringer is to find a few serial numbers and see if any of them are from a stolen vehicle. Or just enjoy the ride as the last owner did for 6 years.
If you can get the engine number the place where you got your vehicle history check done may be able to help with where it came from.
Yer average tratter wannabe often buys on impulse and doesn't know what the hell they are looking for until a crossmember falls off or the foo foo valve fails - Could be a simple mistake by all concerned, and could be nothing at all.
Go gerrit muddy
That just about sums me up when I bought the first one I viewed. 10yrs and a LOT of money later I’m not sure much has changed.
Lol, you viewed yours
