HELP

Hi to all. I’m in the middle of building a one off kit for a Vauxhall calibre turbo, this involves taking the roof off & making it in to a two seater convertible. Looking for some advice, can i take it for a standard m.o.t ? when it’s finished, or will it require an sva? Any info would be greatly appreciated. Cheers

I think that'll qualify as 'radically altered'. The chassis must have a fair bit of strengthening to stop it bending without a roof.

If your'e in the "middle" of this "calibre" project does that mean you've already sawn the roof off, or you've strengthened the sills and bulkheads?

Would have thought that sussing out the SVA / MOT implications prior to starting may have been a "Good Idea".

Is it your own, or are you "doing it for a mate"?

Show us some pics of where you are with the project.
