Love it. Thanks for your help as always! Rick

Hi, thanks! Yeah, would have been great to get it on the road back then but life gets in the way sometimes. To be fair I have done some things better this time so it'll be more robust for it. Yes, I have the manual thanks. A lot to take in but trying to bear it in mind as I'm going through.

I just mean do you know what the manufacturer name should be? Presumably the Freestyle is registered with the DVSA against a certain manufacturer? Edit: I have 4 options from what I'm reading: TH Engineering ABS Funbuggies Muddy Buggies ... or does it even matter which? Thanks! Rick

Interesting, fair enough, thanks for this! On a related note, what should be on the manufacturer's plate? TH Engineering? I bought it from Dave Smart so should it be 'Funbuggies'? Thanks, Rick

So, after about 15 years (yes, I know! 😄) I decided to try and finally complete the project I bought after my Mini bit the dust. It was in a state from being sat for so long so I decided to strip it down and almost start again in August last year. I have been taking photos as I've been going...

Yep, thanks for this. That's how I read the IVA manual too. The issue is more to do with registering the vehicle, assuming it passes the IVA. The letter I got reads: Thanks, Rick

The VIN stamped into the chassis. Thanks, Rick

Hi all, I've just had the VIN through for my Freestyle today and in the letter it states it needs to be attached by a dealer/garage and requires the letter be signed by them. I was kinda hoping I could do this myself. Do you guys have any experience of this and any idea who I would ask to get...

That's fair. Good call on the composite stuff, hadn't thought of that - better than the sheet alu I used before. Thanks, Rick

Thanks, great shout, I hadn't considered this. If you are looking to get rid of the ones you have I might be interested in buying these off you. I just need to make sure they will fit next to the fuel filler. Thanks, Rick

Hi Chris, Any chance you could upload a couple of photos of the engine side panels you mentioned? The ones I made aren't the best so will be looking for something better. Thanks again, Rick

Amazing, thanks chaps! I'll stick some photos up when I get going with it. Thanks again, Rick

Thanks both, and apologies for going over old ground. Got a great community here, hope to meet you at some shows once I'm on the road. Rick

Ah yes, of course - D'oh! As always, thanks for your help! Rick

Hi both, Thanks for the input, again, much appreciated. The sections I am referring to are on the IVA Application Form itself. I've read the guidance notes but still none the wiser on Section 8 - I have attached screenshots for reference. I realise I'm a long way from filling out any...
