how did this get through SVA?

Perhaps it went through because someone, and I'm not naming any Jamiroquai's here, asked very nicely (read - Paid a lot of money!) for it to go through???

Can't follow the link because I'm at work, but if memory serves isn't it on a beetle chassis? Therefore it probably retains that reg and wasn't put through SVA?

It may not need SVA

I suspect the donor quad was put through as a quadricycle MSVA thus making it road legal.

It either has a hopelessly underpowered 250cc engine, or has been, technically illegally, upgraded.

It then had lots of random 'moon buggy' bits and pieces glued/bolted all over it. Whether this is illegal I don't know, but if it ever gets to go back to visit VOSA after being pulled by a disbelieving trafpol I suspect the new owner might be disappointed.

Maybe because he' a cosmic guy, it was SVA'd in another galaxy

More accurately, it's still registered as the quad bike --->

There's no way I'd buy that either.
