Mitchelkitman – You are correct & I’ve now fixed my previous post, thanks.

I’ve also posted a correction on Rods ‘n’ Sods where I’d copied that date across from.

Finally…

In my, admittedly limited, experience, there is still some confusion in the DVLA about the difference between a ‘traditional’ kit car (E.g. Caterham, Westfield, Ultima, etc.) and body kits (E.g. Tribute SWB 250, MX250, etc. ) and rebodies (E.g. Sammios, Miglias, Formosas, etc.).

So, hopefully, these are not affected by this, but I’m still planning to reply on behalf of traditional kits.

Cheers, Paul.
