ABSTRACT:
The invention includes vehicle body panels, and vehicles containing such panels. The panels contain reinforcement that enables them when assembled to contribute to the structural strength of the vehicle. The basic volume of each panel is formed from plastics by reaction-injection moulding so that the panels are light in weight and would be inadequate, in the absence of the reinforcement, to withstand the structural loads. In a typical vehicle construction panels are arranged to form arches spanning from one side of the vehicle to the other, a succession of such arches being assembled together down the length of the vehicle.
