My understanding is that because of major changes to the chassis of the donor car a Dehavilland GT cannot retain the identity of the original donor car.

However as it uses the original engine, transmission, steering, suspension etc when registered with the DVLA in the UK it would have enough points under the DVLA system to be given a "date related plate".

This would mean that the Date of manufacture would be the same as the donor car.

Since the MGF was only manufactured between 1995 and 2011 it looks like you might have a problem with Australian import rules.

Would it be possible to import or purchase a donor car in Australia and have a kit shipped out from the UK?
