INF 26
A number of Suffolk SS100 have been constructed under
the Rules laid down in Booklet INF 26, issued by the Department
of Transport. The Suffolk SS100 qualified as a conversion because
the car uses the brakes, suspension, steering, engine and gearbox
from a single donor Jaguar XJ6. The donor car is over 10 years
old. The new chassis is specifically designed and constructed to
accept the components itemised above. Completed cars would require
a new, current MOT certificate upon completion and an annual MOT
test thereafter.
S.V.A. (Single Vehicle Approval)
Cars built for use in the United Kingdom require a S.V.A. (Single
Vehicle Approval) Test after completion. The test has been successfully
applied to a large number of Suffolk SS100 cars, which has passed
all the S.V.A requirements. Cars that have passed the S.V.A.
test are given the latest V5C Registration Document, showing
the car as new. However, because the Suffolk SS100 uses an engine
designed 30+ years ago, there are no onerous emission rules,
and the car does not require a catalytic converter.
Overseas Export Sales
You can also build the Suffolk SS100 using some donor parts sourced
from the 1964-1969 Jaguar S-Type and Jaguar 420 models, which
give the rebuilt cars an early date of manufacture. We have extensive
stocks of Jaguar XJ6 parts to make up a customer's component
requirements .
