V5 Mx5 Model; Name Change
Hi all, Has everyone named their MX250 as just that on the V5
Or tried their luck with more unusual / one off perhaps. What is the general concensus ? |
I did a Z300S and registered it as a BMW Z300S Barchetta.
It came back as something different but after 2-3 attempts and many hours arguing with people at the DVLA who kept contradicting each other and themselves it was finally registered as that. I think as long as you get a letter from Chris confirming that you bought a kit called what ever you want to register the ar as then you should be okay. |
Hi Nick, thanks for that.
My letter from Chris def states Mx250 , so guess thats that. Didnt think to ask for something different . Reckon will be happy with with Mx250 . Does it have to have Mazda as a Pre-fix (Make) ? |
The make has to stay as the real make. The model can change, perhaps Chris can send you another letter?
|
No no , best not push my luck .
Do these "changes" go on the front page of the V627/1 form or is it the donor original name in that section ? |
Mine was recorded as "Mazda MX250 Spyder"
Had no problems with the dvla !!!! Surprisingly |
Cool model name for a convertible. Like it !
Have just posted it all off , lets see what comes back. He He Are you missing your cars, Or have you started another ? |

Ahhh, Least you will have your wife on board for the next one, which is half the battle.
Yes its a shame the Mx5 based cars (std 4 engines) aren't taken as serously as the 6 cyl Bmw based ones. |

V5 now says Mazda Tribute MX250 ......Which is what it is, I guess !!! And another job to tick off the never ending list |

What changes didn't happen or were different to what you expected ? Only asking as I'm about to go through the same process. |
Mx 250 V5 model change

All the changes happened ie colour , model and convertible to coupe, i just didn't quite get the "model" name i put on form and V5. I think Dvla used the Full name of the Kit on my V5 (taken from Chris's Flyer) rather than " Mazda 250 GTO) which i wrote on the model change. But i am pleased / relieved to have got it done as there is this change to modified vehicles happening supposedly in May this year , which i don't think affects our conversions but you never know. Perhaps 250 GTO was being a bit cheeky ...he he he |
V5 Model change
Meant to say one of the photo's showed the registration on the car (on classic plates too .....Oops).
|
At least one photo needs to show the registration ...

Kobra
DVLA gave me
Make:Tribute Cobra Model: Z3 ... which wasn't what I requested. Ive just left it like that |
Mine is
Make Tribute California Model Sports No mention of BMW anywhere, I think they make the rules up as they go along but to be fair the V5 came back in a week. |
Morning all,
Interested in this as I'll be going through the process in the next couple of months or so. Does the car need a current MOT and road tax for the re-designation?? If not can the name change occur whilst the car is in build, ie the body fitted so they can see the end result, but no interior?? Thanks Steve. |
I don't think you MOT or Tax and you don't need a picture of the interior.
Before and after pictures with numberplate showing. A picture halfway through the build is a good idea as well. |
