It is also possible to get a 'daylight' MOT whereby you don't actually need any lights at all. As soon as you fit sidelights then you need the full complement of lights, my plan was just to have brake lights and indicators. You will however need a handbrake and a horn, I think that even a speedo is not required.

Now that I didn't know - I assumed you'd have to stick it through an IVA to get VIN plate etc. How do you get it registered? Does the VD plate count for proof of age?

Wow - this could be easier than I thought thanks for this, something to look at....
