Wouldn't want to get to far into the new build to find things have changed drastically in the last few years.
Kubota Z482 which is plodding on with unnerving reliability. Three years so far.

Yeah last Friday I got me boys bike through, it's all common sense really, I would advise joining the Britchopper forum as there's loads of experts available, I'd also buy a copy of the MSVA manual itself, as I made a few cock ups which cost me dear.

Cool, that's actually a very encouraging comment.

I'll be horrifying them with my ideas a bit later on.

I also rung them to check it had the latest updates.

It also looks likely that I have to fill out a V55/5 and pay an additional £55 to register the new / converted bike so I can obtain a VIN number and stamp the chassis before I can apply for a MSVA test.
