I know its legal to drive to a pre-booked IVA as long as you have insurance, but I'm having a bit of a major argument with one of my mates (he's a plod so thinks he knows best)

so to shut him up I need to know were it actualy says that in the legislation and I'm not getting anywere with google....

section 7
http://online.businesslink.gov.uk/Transport_files/IVA_Information_Guide_V2.0_with_links_1110.pdf

well, its more for imports, but does say you can drive an unregistered car to iva

as a copper he should know you can drive any vehicle to a pre booked ministry inspection, regardless of if it is registered, taxed, mot'd, all it needs is insurance

thanks for the link, but he won't be happy unless I can quote him the Act, year and section.....

Vehicle Excise and Registration Action 1994, Schedule 2 (Exempt Vehicles), Section 22 (Vehicle Testing etc)

LINKY and keep scrolling down to Section 22

That's interesting section 22 paragraph 2 indicates that you're exempt for a vehicle identity check. Could that cover you for the pre-registration DVLA inspection? They are checking that the car is what you say it is.
