So you plan on driving to the test centre? I didn't think you could? Can you explain?

you can drive to iva centre. the car is insured on the vin number

Yes, I'm that stupid!

You're allowed to drive to and from the test centre as long as you're insured.

Also if you fail the test you can drive to and from a pre-booked appointment at a garage to fix any of the items that have failed.

It's covered under the Vehicle Excise and Registration Act 1994, Chapter 22, Schedule 2 (Exempt Vehicles), Section 22 (Vehicle testing etc).

You can have a read here if you're really bored:

Wow! Better take a print out of that for when your average copper stops you for not having a number plate or tax. I'll take a read of that link, one day. Great price on the insurance though. Why so low though? Your car will do 0-60 in under 6 seconds for sure. I'm not complaining just shocked. I thought an insurance company would get their fantasy calculator out for sure!:)

I was pleasantly surprised, but having looked on the locost forum £150 to £200 seems fairly average for a kit car.
I guess it must be because kit cars tend to spend 350 days a year tucked away in a garage and only come out during the half a dozen days of sunshine we get each summer!
And after investing several years of blood, sweat, tears, and vast amounts of cash building it you're probably going to try your best not to crash it!

More likely that you won't want to crash it because you'll end up maimed or dead!!! Lol What is the euroencap rating for these cars again?

I belive that would be zero stars Chris!
Frontal impact might not be too bad with that nice long engine bay to take the brunt of it.
I dread to think what would happen in a side impact though :eek:

Changing the subject I think I'm almost ready for IVA now. Just been printing out directions for the test centre and wishing I'd had the foresight to fit a fag lighter socket and somewhere to mount my gps :rolleyes:

Excited for you! :D Duck tape!

I don't think IVA man will be impressed if I turn up with things strapped to my car with duck tape :D

Just checked the forecast for test day, looking good :cool:
