Registering a car that passed an SVA in 2005.....
Hi there
I've recently purchased a Caterham that was SVA'd in 2005, but it was never registered as it has been used as a race car.
I've had confimation from VOSA and Gillingham that the car was SVA'd and passed in June 2005 and I am currently liasing with the DVLA
about whether it needs to now go through an IVA (The car was factory built and presented by Caterham Cars for the SVA). I know of one other Caterham
that was registered successfully with 6 years beween SVA and registration.
Anyone has a similar experience?
Best regards
Ian

IVA guidance here https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/209278/guide-to-the-iva-scheme.pdf
states:
9.1 Is my SVA certificate still valid?
Due to the mandatory introduction of IVA, an SVA certificate issued to an M1 passenger car (other
than a special purpose vehicle) was only valid for registration purposes until 31st December 2009. An
SVA certificate for an M1 passenger car that was a special purpose vehicle was valid for registration
purposes until 31st December 2012. An SVA certificate issued to an N1 light goods vehicle (other than
a special purpose vehicle) is only valid for registration until 29th April 2013 and for a special purpose
goods vehicle until 28th October 2014.

Looks like unless you fit a crane to it or a tipper body  and call it a special purpose goods vehicle then you are looking at an IVA test 
"That thing you're thinking - it wont be that."

Just had confimation back from VOSA that
"SVA certificates ceased to be valid for registration purposes after close of business on 28th April 2013. "
So IVA it is......
