Getting Vehicle Road Legal

Comment on DIY Electric Car Forum 20th April 2020;

"contacted MIRA and have had it confirmed a certificate of compliance with R100.01 will cost around £5K i and have been given a provisional form to fill then a phone call which has obviously moved on since i contacted them before - not sure I'm really ready yet but it seem a more formal process is in place."

Would seem to make the following comment out of date;

"Convert the vehicle, insure it, get an MOT, inform DVLA of the fuel type and tax class change. Take vehicle for an inspection and wait."
