Had a letter from the DVLA today
Hi there,
Today I received this from the DVLA, am I right in thinking that they are no longer allowing the use of the point system to do a body swap to a
vehicle?
Some time ago I wrote to the DVLA regarding this issue which is potentially why they have written to me to make me aware of the changes!

I have one too, because I did an IVA last year. Guess they are just using up spare trees. I could not find any useful information on it.

Option 3 is iva and doesn't look any different to the current procedure.
That's OK for us building kits, or does it affect the kit manufacturer?

I got one last week. The part I noticed was " to show that it complies with European Community Whole Vehicle Type Approval"
Does this mean that a vehicle that passes IVA will now be accepted for registration in the EU I wonder?

no...as your national approval test(IVA) has no acceptance outside UK.

The 3rd paragraph of "Chapter X - Article 24 - point 6" of the "Directive 2007/46/EC of the European Parliament and of the
Council" reads:
quote:
With regard to a vehicle which has been granted an individual
approval by a Member State in accordance with the provisions
of this Article, another Member State shall permit that vehicle to
be sold, registered or to enter into service unless it has reasonable
grounds to believe that the technical provisions against
which the vehicle was approved are not equivalent to its own.
This means that IVA may be accepted by other countries (when importing the vehicle) depending on how nice (or not) the DVLA's of those countries
are.
Some countries are known for not recognizing the IVA as "equivalent to its own" (i.e. germany's TÜV) but others pose no problem.
I'm counting on this to get Portuguese plates on my kit. Get it IVA'ed in the UK and then import it.

but than it comes to emissions:
there are certain age-limits where the differnt emission classifications (EURO1, 2, 3 ....) have been established.
outside UK the emission classification of the car is determined by the registration date, only in UK by the engine age or a q-plated car has no
emission limits!!
thats the problem.
so if the reg-date is 2011, whatever engine is fitted, the car must fullfil the EURO5 limits in all aspects (noise, emissions, OBD connection, safety
and crash features etc.)
Euro 1 (1993):
For passenger cars - 91/441/EEC.[8]
Also for passenger cars and light trucks - 93/59/EEC.
Euro 2 (1996) for passenger cars - 94/12/EC (& 96/69/EC)
For motorcycle - 2002/51/EC (row A)[9] - 2006/120/EC
Euro 3 (2000) for any vehicle - 98/69/EC[10]
For motorcycle - 2002/51/EC (row B)[9] - 2006/120/EC
Euro 4 (2005) for any vehicle - 98/69/EC (& 2002/80/EC)
Euro 5 (2008/9) and Euro 6 (2014) for light passenger and commercial vehicles - 715/2007/EC[1
