Following on from what people are saying about a VIN, I contacted Leeds DVLA office to get a VIN, so I could weld on the plate before powder coating.
They said I couldnt have one until it was ready for inspection!!! In fact they said they would have to inspect it to give me a VIN before the IVA inspection.
What's that all about then?????
I explained about powder coating and welding etc, but the numpty said that wasnt his problem!
He did say the chassis manufacturers were issuing chassis numbers now.
So does that mean if I 'make' a chassis I can allocate my own 17? digit number??
Any ideas anyone?
