Praise for DVLA!
Came home tonight, checked the post and have the registration number for the car and a TAX disk.
Age related plate 'H' reg
That's it done and dusted???/?/
The car will be Road legal tonight, will not be on the road tonight, saving that for daylight Saturday.
Halfords later for the plates.

Nice ! Well done and enjoy your first official drive !!!
But regarding the DVLA and the IVA, I have a question: I live in Belgium and I will be building the car also over here. When it is finished I will put
it on a trailer and present it to IVA. But if I pass IVA, I also have to present the car to the DVLA? Can this be done in 1 day or do I have to
transport the car twice over the channel? Once for IVA and once for DVLA ?

I had to present car to DVLA to get Vin number. Then get IVA, then a seperate visit to DVLA to leave documents for Registration.
Why not contact them and see what is best for you.

Can a non UK resident present a car not built in UK for IVA ? I would check if this is allowed under the regulations.

yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

I will build this car for a UK resident and 6 months after IVA/DVLA, I will buy this car from him.

I did SVA and registratrion all in one day using Mitcham SVA centre and then Wimbledon DVLA.
But! I had already had the inspection before SVA.
I was also lucky in that I had an *extremely* helpful DVLA case worker who knew the correct system. She was a rare case!
So yes, it can be done, but be prepared for it not to be!
Cheers,
James
