| vin plate? Is it mandatory for a vin plate to be attached to the car for the SVA if I already have the chassis number stamped into the chassis in an easily readable position? Can't find a reference to this anywhere - only a mention of it in the Pilgrim build manual. I have SVA on Monday and no plate fitted. John      |

| Stamped in the chassis is the best way. Some cars have failed with just a riveted on plate. The Dax chassis is stamped but not in an easy to see place so the Vin plate can just be placed somewhere easier to read. Craig.

| My SVA tester said it was good to have both. Not sure what the actual requirements are, as each tester seems to have his/her own take on things.

| Good question! I don't see any mention of it in my SVA Manual, but for the sake of a couple of quid, and a chance of not passing SVA I'd put one on!

| Actually I'm going to change my mind! The one I knew off passed the SVA fine with no stamped chassis number but it didn't pass the DVLA inspection afterward. It was the DVLA inspector who requested a stamped chassis or a stamped steel plate, welded to the chassis. Craig.

| I agree with Craig, you do need it for DVLA.
