European Union
Generally, privately built cars registered in any the European Union country must demonstrate compliance with a range of National regulations and EC directives, including, for example, that they have adequate seat-belt arrangement and a calculation of frontal/side impact resistance likely to protect passengers and pedestrians in certain types of accidents. For Kit Cars where the bodywork is not supplied, the naked chassis with unguarded wheels could not meet EC safety criteria for registration.
