    I see.
    My calibra had turbo on the log book. So I assumed when I moved it to the nova it was going to come back saying nova turbo.
    but like you said if it's part of the cars name. Which I guess is was as they say it on boot lid,
    (But then so do the cav's !? )

    dunno. Don't really care. :D
    It's back. It says 2.0l (1998) and I'm driving it.

    Mine came back first time with the correct engine number and displacement. My cover letter and qc letter obviously did the trick!

    How long does it take for them to update their records? I sent my logbook off 5 weeks ago along with a receipt of engine, mechanical report from a MOT tester at my local garage, and accompanying letter stating the changes. II've heard nothing back and DVLA website still shows it as a 993cc whenever I check it, not a 1998cc

    Just wondering but I insured my car when it was still logged as a 1.0 however I declared a non standard engine and all the mods. I now want to declare the engine Change to the dvla so do I have to change insurance too?

    If it's already insured as 1600 no, but if it's down on there insurance as a 993 then yep.

    DVLA aren't known for being quick, let alone if there's a Christmas in the way. Maybe try giving them a call?
