The 'E' Type Forum

I see a US flag in his profile....but we have plenty of members who show their nationality with a flag but not necessarily their location....and he does refer to E type rather than XKE...anyway good info for others...or if he wants to export

An engine change needs to be notified to DVLA and probaby end up on a Q plate and lose its historic status and a lot of value
