[QUOTE="CairoManx"]What about all those dozen's and dozens of other kit cars they make and sell in the UK. Are they all TUV(?) tested?[/QUOTE] Yes, we call it the SVA test,, and that would be tough for a buggy to pass,, the big problem is they keep changing the rules & regulations. A few years ago i had a copy of the latest (back then)SVA regs,, and there is no way a standard buggy would have passed. In France, Belgium & Holland its almost impossible to get a new SWB buggy road registered,,, so i guess we will follow them soon.
