Immobiliser
I've been told that to comply with IVA regs the car needs an immobiliser. Reading the IVA manual it appears to say the ignition switch and steering lock would be ok.
Have I understood this correctly?

Jez,
you'll get through IVA with a steering lock and ignition switch. You can have an immobiliser as well, but you'll have to prove it complies with certain regs! Fit one after  Less they have to check more chance you'll pass.

Thanks Daz, that's just what I wanted to hear
There's going to be a lot of jobs to do once the IVA's been done

An idea
I had thought about fitting an alarm/immoboliser, and was hoping to fit a motorbike imoboliser, as seems ideal and not too expensive.
http://www.motorbikealarm.co.uk/ May be some ideas here for you. I had emailed an enquiry and got this response. Was about £30 I think, I imagine they are upto scratch regs wise. We get quite a few buying for kit cars to be honest. I would recommend one of the Cyclone V2 types ( or advanced V3 if you need the proximity sensing and paging functions ) When you order please remind us that it is for a kit car.

Check IVA manual,I think you will need a certificate for the fitting of any system by certified fitter.

I think in the latest iva revision that the need for a certificate of installation by an approved person has been removed. Just think you need an ec compliance certificate from the manufacturer. They are normally in the box.

I wouldn't have thought you would need one for that Andy. Just make sure that things like hazards, that must work when ignition off work with master switch off. They might ask you to remove it at iva to check.
