Robin hood clearance sale.........
Called in today too pick some polished stainless up for side panel, they are having a clearance sale of parts, you name it its for sale from a bulb
too a car.
No, there not selling up, actually was very impressed with a lot of what I was shown, dash board developments, cars etc, the service was second too
none too.
The lightweight in question was there so had a prod around that too, will keep my opinions too myself on that one for fear of starting yet another
debate on it, suffice too say it may be wise not too comment on the car in question till you have seen it yourself.
Anyway, get down there from Wednesday on, some genuine bargains too be had for the locost or other mark builder.

Have they stopped using toilet roll tubes for roll bars 
Each to their own but at my SVA the examiner had inspected a few lightweights in the months before and explained a few of their special design
features....  Scary....
I feel sorry for people who have paid good money for the kit though. To be stuck in a situation where VOSA basically say "no way" to your
pride and joy sucks... I suppose a good reason not to buy a kit unless the manafacturer has put one through SVA succesfully.

I don't know the ins and outs of it all, I may be quoting out of turn but was told there are 5 sva'd now, they have modded the tub ?
IMHO the one in question would and should have failed SVA for plenty of reasons, there, now you made me say it. Go look and make your own mind up.
Some of the developments I saw, was shown will make a few manufactures think they may have too play catch up, was genuinely impressed and I have zero
affiliation too them whatsoever.

Jon,
I saw that car months ago.
It really was a disgraceful build, that car was nailed together. It should never of been presented to the SVA man.
