oh, if you want, you can just use the IVAs.html file, which is the main text, without the links to original page numbers and the graphics (few as
they are). I used it with my eBook reader quite nicely.

sorry folks. the html conversion wasn't that great. many (most?) of the sentences are broken up and out of order. I'll have another look
when I am in front of a real computer and not remote desktopping from my phone!

Did "this inspector" say why, or is it just "someone who heard about bIVA".....? Just read the manual and concluded if it is
possible. Guessing is not the right thing to do. It makes people nuts.
26 is about de Front Fog lamps, they are optional so..... don't mount them or mount them as required.

Some punctuation? 
Seriously though, as already said, don't fit them or fit them correctly.  This seems to be one of the easier regs to understand.
I'm currently in conversation with VOSA to understand visibility issues which are much less clear.

Are they keeping the SVA for goods vehicles?
can you build a special goods vehicle...eg a special post van 7 and then modify it a bit after? :-)
(yes i am being tongue in cheek)
Any confirmation on the price yet? £500 seems an awfully big hike that will hit a lot of you hard. Are they trying to stop people building kit cars?
Is there some reason they may - high fatality rate, pressure from the EU etc? I can't see it tbh.

Hi,
Just read your Building status thingy! Are you an SVA/IVA Tester?

bias bars....
Note 5: Bias bars and other mechanical adjusting devices fitted to twin
master cylinders must have no means of adjustment. However they will
be deemed acceptable if the all nuts etc are fully welded to their relative
threads and all the threads originally intended to provide adjustment are
welded along their length i.e. permanently rendering them un-adjustable.
The above comments are always meant to be from the above persons perspective.

IVA diagonal split braking requirement
A Sierra master cylinder has three outlets. One from the chamber nearest the brake pedal and two from the front chamber. Would it be OK to split the
brakes by piping one of the front outlets to a front brake the other to a rear brake and then splitting the single outlet front and back?
It looks like that the requirement for diagonal split braking is going to make it impossible for people to use twin master cylinders and a bias bar.
I can't see how that would work.
From the IVA manual, Brakes section 09A
4.
The vehicle must be fitted with a split (dual) circuit brake system with each part of the system operating on at least two wheels (one on each side),
capable of operating in the event of a failure of the service brake or its power assistance.

This is NOT necessarily a diagonally split requirement!
A front/rear split meets the above requirement of "each part of the system operating on at least two wheels (one on each side)"
