I ran the blue car with a cylinder capacity of 3500 on the V5C long after it was changed to 4600, it was only after someone was interested in taking the car did I change it, so the new owner was correctly registered.
I followed these rules, which do not mention tax or MOT exemption, and the change went through smoothly.

MOT exemption is not lost with a capacity change as it is allowable, and not a substantial change. I always MOT'd the car, but I also had the choice not to as it complied with the current exemption legistlation.
Its academic now as I no longer own it. I was merely pointing out the pitfalls of being too open and honest when dealing with the Welsh.
