    I've mentioned this before - I've a good mate who is actually dyslexic, and even he would be appalled at something like that Ebay listing. Dyslexia is more a reading disability, not written, and for sure it doesn't mean you spell words the way they're pronounced, write in 'txt spk', a lack of basic grammar, general bone-idleness for writing, etc.

    Farm labouring peasants in 18th century Shropshire had better linguistic skills than that lad.

    If I was him I'd be wanting a tax refund from Tony 'Education, Education, Education' Blair

    the not declaring bit... if it was in a vosa check, or worse an accident.. say hello to IN10 as it'll be void

    my bro's corsa was registered as a 1.0 still when he got it, he had to write to DVLA straight away as it had a C20XE in it, it costs more on insurance but its better in the long run

    Have to agree not declaring anything that you know about is bloody stupid.

    In this case we dont know if the car has been used on the road since the engine swap, just hope the new owner declares the Engine changes.
