Plastic fuel tanks
Does anyone have any suppliers of plastic fuel tanks to fit a book locost frame that comes suitably certified for the IVA?
Cheers

Why a plastic tank? What's wrong with aluminium?

Just fancied a corrosion free plastic one if they were becoming available with the new IVA regs.
Where do you get certified alloy ones the correct shape?

Only plastic tanks need to be certified.

Edit:
2.Plastic Fuel Tanks
The vehicle must be accompanied by satisfactory evidence that the tank is designed for road use or the fuel tank is an original fitment to a mass
produced vehicle, or has been previously and is un-modified.

Note to all: I really don't know when to leave well alone. I tried to get clever with the mods, then when they gave me a lifeline to see the
error of my ways, I tried to incite more trouble via u2u. So now I'm banned, never to return again. They should have done it years ago!

So alloy ones can still be made in your garage?
