No wheel arches, how does that work then and iva or maybe they've been type approved?
Sure they'll be more stuff that is unclear as to how it can be registered that the first thing I noticed.

I think they get away with it being a 'Quadricycle' I wonder if anyone has ever registered a kitcar as one

You have to be below a certain weight (I think the limit is around 400Kg but its a long time since I went through DirectGov to find out for a
project).
G-Wiz is legally a Quad bike.

puts a new perspective on the term . "go and play with the trafic"
The state the roads are in around here at the best of times , let alone after the snow (potholes) doesn't make it that tempting . Karts are fun
on smooth twisty tracks..... long straight bumpy roads with trucks on ...no thanks

Beware! Bourettes is binfectious.

If it's 400kg people must be able to get there cars below that with a BEC how would that affect the testing

It isn't a case of getting away with it, you have no choice. If it weighs less than 400kg and has less than 20.1 BHP it IS a quadricycle. You
HAVE to do MSVA and CANNOT do IVA. You, sir, have to do what you're told.
I bet you'd like to have a go in one though!

I'd have a go in it. Then I'd rip the engine out and stick a blade in it!!!

I'll second that. I have a 200cc SMC road legal quad for messing about in the snow/country and it's very very tempting to swap the engine
Are you a Mac user or a retard?

If you do that it then requires an IVA, which it will fail.
Though a lot of 'road-legal' quad bikes have gone that route. I suspect they will start cracking down at some point.
ETA unless you de-tune the blade engine down to 20.1bhp.
