What the DVLA do depends on the situation, in some cases they , if its an older pre IVA car they will issue an Q plate, but if its a modern design, they show no mercy, the ringer can be crushed .
plus they will do the seller for not returning the v5 to dvla,
having re built my Melos from scratch, it was an interesting build, would i do it again, yes but with lessons learnt from what i messed up on, she may be old, she may not be completly top class, but she goes well , is safe and i know every last nut and bolt, and when it went for its first MOT, all i had to fix was to add extension pipes onto the front calipers because the front hoses may contact something, not bad for a budget build, oh and total cost, including buying it, £ 600 insurance is £90 fully comp , its tax exempt as its registered as historic
