its a very good question. i had thought about trying to test it as a good vehicle, but i think i'd struggle to convince a tester that the chassis was ever a good vehicle



i had thought about it last year, but decided against it i think on the basis that it can't hold anything, and a tester could refuse to test it

kit car with open boot would never make it through i think sva says the load area (the bed of the pickup) has to make up at least half the total length of the vehicle or something

The rules on kit classification were changed a few years ago.

The Kaig, one of which I have in bits, cannot be classed as a LDV, van, or light goods.
