[QUOTE="Simon Dinsdale, post: 127306, member: 58"] Greg To get a vehicle correctly registered in the UK then there are several options. If you are a large manufacturer recognised by DVLA (UK Government registration authority) then you can get production type approval. If you are a manufacturer of a low quantity of vehicles then you have to get SVA (single vehicle approval) for every vehicle you make and want registered. This covers all brand new vehicles and so as JMC are using brand new frames and brand new engines but in low quantity I would expect thm to have to pass an SVA test and all the modern regulations such as emissions, safety, construction etc for every bike they make. Now if you are rebuilding a vehicle from old parts and the engine and frame can be proven to be manufactured over 25 years ago then you can apply for an age related registrations. This has the advantage of not having to pass modern regulations and sometimes MOT exempt and also free road fund tax and covers historic vehicles such as our bikes that were built by the Vincent factroy. Now something like a brand new Norvin with brand new engine and brand new frame should not qualify for this type of registrations and any vehicle that has falsly aquired such a registration is at risk of the DVLA stripping it of its reg and so making it unusable in UK and I know of circumstances that the DVLA have done exactly that. As an example over the last few years Jaguar has made some brand new D types and I believe also some E types to exactly the original specification but because they are brand new they would have to pass modern regulations which they couldn't. So Jaguar has sold them as track day vehicles and not for use on UK roads as they would be able to get them past the DVLA. [/QUOTE]
