You can't submit a car for an IVA test untill it's roadworthy.
It should be IVA tested if it has any modifications to the bodyshell such as FWD to RWD.

However there are thousands of cars on the road which should be tested and haven't been.

VIN stays, it's the only way of keeping track of the shell.
