Hi all,

Appreciate your input based on scenario below. Thanks.

Car = e34 525 2500cc (aged more than 25 years old), papers complete.
Status = converted to v8 4000cc without tampering with original mounting and no cutting/modifying the chassis at all, papers complete too...

questions;
1. boleh endorse tak? if yes how? cos this is more than 25% increase of original cc...
2. since the chassis is more than 25 years old, can i get the 70% roadtax discount and consider this car as antique? so only pay rm800++ instead of rm6k++ per year... if yes how?
3. what is the cost to do the above plus tukar nama and roadtax?
4. any forumer/car owner/runner can do the above or have done the above i hope you can help me here.

thanks.
