In regards to the mod I'm about to carry out.. (changing a standard megane into a 225 replica)

Should you need to notify

A) the DVLA
B) your insurance company?

Forgive me if this has already been covered...

Cheers!

Kind of figured I need to tell the ole' insurance but wasn't so sure about the DVLA.

I do however know for sure that if you are planning to wrap your car to change it's colour as apposed to painting you do not need to inform the DVLA as it's deemed a 'temporary colour change'
*trying to fish for some work here lol*

A nugget of uselessness for you there!

About the wrapping??

You'd think you would be obliged to tell them wouldn't you?
But no...

So if you're planning a train robery or anything scandeless.. Don't say i told you so!! ;)
