AA is a hampshire suffix and Salisbury is close enough to the VRO in Hampshire. It may well have had its own once, like Southampton did but they closed and merged a lot of them.<br>

Adam, all joking aside, since you have done the engine swap, you MUST inform your insurers and the DVLA.<br>
<br>
Imagine if a little girl ran out in front of you, and was squashed flat....to add insult to the fact they had lost thier daughter, the parents wouldnt be able to claim insurance for the medical costs because the driver wasn't insured....<br>
<br>
Thats what it boils down to. Driving a car modified without informing your insurance company or DVLA...well, you're just pissing the money away, because YOU ARE NOT INSURED. You may as well not bother paying anything than pretending to be insured.<br>
<br>
Believe me, insurance companies are bad enough to cough up even when they should do....you think they would be any different when they shouldn't?<br>
<br>
rant off, but it needed to be said....<!--EZCODE EMOTICON START >: --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/mad.gif ALT=">:"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END-->
