    That is what I did. I got an MOT for it before it left the uk. But when I got here I worked for a land rover dealer. I watched them do the roadworthy. Once that was done I took it to the transport department who just looked at it sat in the car park. And gave me the relevant documents and off I went.

    I got my compliance plate and stuff before I got the roadworthy. That was easy too. Although I worried about it for ages.

    Depends where and by who! In my experience MOT is a joke compared to roadworthy (VIC).

    In UK the landy passed MOT without doors before a completed chassis swap - the inspector was told they are as good as on. The roadworthy in VIC saw two pages of fails and advisories.

    But if the car is stock or if you go somewhere they dont know landys so well, I'm sure you will be fine. One of my fails was 'Non Original Steering Wheel'!
