Posted on 02/10/2020 11:15 by LutzOut of interest, who is the manufacturer named on the revised plate that SvTech issued? Unless the original manufacturer covered the uprated weight by an appropriate amendment in his type approval documentation he can no longer carry any product liability so presumably SvTech is then responsible and is then the named manufacturer. Is that so?

I did not use SvTech other than to discuss the process with them and to gain initial advice. The photos of the three plates I sent to DVLA were in order of their fitting:
1. Fiat (base chassis)
2. Alko (mod chassis)
3. VB (VB 4C air suspension)
I achieved what I wanted at minimal cost, a little of my time, an email, two phone calls and a postage stamp. I did not delve any deeper.
I believe SvTech is licenced, presumably by DVLA, to issue plates. I expect it is on their website.
