Type approval is proving to be a nightmare regarding the defender 130. IVA looks to be the only option (long waiting time for this) unless I can get land rover special vehicles to at the very least put something on the chassis (ie tipper or flatbed). Not to mention some of the prices ive been quoted so far to build the chip box!!

Quite simply.....very very frustrating!!

Just had a very positive conversation with Ian at boulter tippers. Just need land rover to tell me whether they can register the vehicle as a chassis cab therefore getting round the type approval issue.

Think the bigger companies should be able to offer type approval, but they'll be the expensive prices!

 

I'll pm you.

Just spoken to guy salmon in bristol and they say that they will supply me a 130 chassis cab that will be registered (with a number plate).

Can anyone confirm for me or reject the fact that as long as the vehicle has been registered I dont need to worry about type approval or an IVA if I take it to a coachbuilders to have the chipbox put on?

What about Tipmaster? They build bespoke bodies for all kinds of vehicles?

 

I phoned them today about getting a body built for my 130 and they didn't even phone back, so they won't be getting the job.
