I emailed DVLA to find out what I needed to do following the closure of my local office.

This is the most sensible reply I had after a few responses pointed me towards forms that I don't have the details to fill out:

It may help to explain in order for am new VIN number to be issued, to a Kit Build vehicle, you will need to send in letter with your signature to the appropiate department details as follows:


VC15A
MASET
Longview Road
Morriston
Swansea
SA6 7JL

You should receive a response within 4 weeks


I hope this reply meets with your approval.



I resisted the urge to correct spelling mistakes and punctuation! I've sent the letter off and will wait to see what happens.

You will get a letter back with chassis number on it and a form to fill in that makes little or no sense whatsoever .

Do you give the form to the iva tester? I remember when mine arrived there was something asking for a dealer stamp that the vin had been stamped onto the chassis.

Build cost.... seems to be spending more on tools than car bits at the moment! (they will be handy in the future though).

No David mine is still chassis only,garage stamping is no problem the form requires vehicle reg and other info,did not read too much of it as it did not make too much sense as to what they wanted in relation to providing vin number.

Got mine back this week.
I have a chassis number but it asks that I get dealer/garage to sign it to verify its been stamped on the chassis and then send it back.
Is this right, surely they can check this at IVA?

Its probably to go with IVA paperwork and they don't explain that or don't know and are told to put it with the letter.

Yep-agree. I got a load of stuff like that. All to do with final registration. If you build a "kit car" (which we are not) they often require certification of main components used.IVA covers all that in our builds.
