They still have to take SVAs though to be registered in britain. The rules on those are getting harsher by the day.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't that apply to high volume producers? I can't imagine the fibre glass TVR's of the day passing the NCAP crash tests, and those tiny fibre glass lotus's and Caterhams for that matter etc?
Cars don't *have* to get ncap stars to be road legal, they do have to get SVA for kit cars, or type approval for volume produced. It dictates not the body composition but things like light positions etc etc
