thats great thank you will look harder in future do you need to let the dvla know the chassis number or is that done when applied for sva licence etc

need to search a bit more ... ask the DVLA local office nearest you - some let you choose your own VIN, some insist on allocating it for you

Ring DVLA see if they want to give you a chassis number (most do). Wallop the chassis number on, insure on chassis number, drive to SVA, get in contact with the DVLA, tell them to wee off when they say you need an MOT (or if you want to be polite ask them what it's going to show that an SVA test doesn't), wait half a year, get your registration documents Easy!!

Cheat.

Get in touch with paul jepson at kit car registrations! £35 and he does the whole lot for you, fills out all forms and goes to the dvla to beat them up

It sounds like your local DVLA office are of the opinion that its okay for you to make one up... Although UK built cars should have a 17 digit chassis number, this isn't a total necessity. Though it makes registration easier so why not do it...
As long as you come up with a chassis identifier that no-one else is likely to come up with then it's pretty easy to DIY.

I'd make up your own chassis number and get the DVLA involved again a few weeks prior to SVA. Sometimes they'll do the inspection before SVA, sometimes they'll only do it when you have the MAC (ministers approval certificate- from passing SVA).

The whole things often a real PITA see

Good luck....
