You can (if correctly insured and booked for a test) drive your un-plated car to the SVA test. As for the goggles, well that's a personal choice really.

and so we can see what you look like without scrolling.... Rescued attachment untitled.jpg

We drove to the SVA station and back 3 times, over the Pennines with no plates.
We never got a second look from either Plod or Mr SVA.

Take a spare set of clothing and a bucket to bail out, it p***ed it down all the way

Mucho fun

I made SVA letteers from maskking tape. sod's law meant that I drove past a police car who did not bat an eyelid - only hassle I got was from Mr White Van Man but I shouted SVA nad floored it so it was ok.

You can also drive to a "relevant place" for a pre-booked appointment to have faults rectified after an SVA fail.
However it must be insured and you may be committing an offence if it doesn't comply with construction and use regulations.
At least that's what it says on my fail certificate ....... but yours won't fail, will it?
HTH.

They can stop you driving it home again though if they don't like something...

I managed to pull up at some traffic lights with plod behind me with no number plate on. At the moment i came to a halt a fuel line blew off squirting high pressure fuel all over the road and hot exhaust. Plod couldn't care less, they helped me push it onto the pavement!

Have you ever burnt your tongue? Seriously though, if you want to do the job properly it should be sticking out the other side.





yours, Pete

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

This will make you laugh, conrod puts a rear number plate on his 1st car for SVA test and they failed it due to incorrect radius edges LOL.

I gaffer taped a piece of paper on with the chassis number on it, tester said it wasnt needed.

As long as your insured on the chassis number and booked your ok.

I got no hassle over driving there just with a number plate surround fitted. Most of the looks I got were I suspect due to people wondering what damn fool was driving a car around in the dark and mist with no screen at 06:30 yesterday morning......

You don't need a number plate for driving to the sva test and in fact a pedantic PC COULD do you for driving with and illegal plate, SVA not being a legal plate.
