Finally made it today after fourth attempt! What a feeling, nothing can wipe the smile off my face tonight. Just wanted to thank all those who have come up with solutions to problems I've posted and those who've suggested leads to solutions. Also thanks to Guinness (Mike Cookson) for sorting my cocked up wiring on Saturday. I've passed today with my six months deadline for retests tomorrow, skin of my teeth or what? For all of you still building, keep going it's definitely worth it, it's even better than the first time you fire it up!

All the best, Kurt.

Now, how the hell do you register these things?????

Not sure about registering
But well done for passing

Well done, It seems to have been a bit of a trial so it should feel like a real achievement and I bet you've learned a lot!

Cheers

Mark

Just take all your reciepts, insurance docs, donor v5, MAC and chequebook down to your local DVLA office and smile nicely!

Congratulations Kurt. Happy to help.

Kurt, Well done cracking feeling isn't it. you've still time to get some miles in just take it easy in the cold whilst learning the car, I scared the cra* out of myself when it got cold.

ATB Dan.

I remember a great blast up into Northumberland one cold January morning earlier this year. Me in full ski suit, helmet, gloves and trainers! Cold dry morning, brilliant sunshine and crisp cold air.

Had a real blast on the open roads. Did have a bit of a moment though as I rounded a bend and got two wheels on the snow though! Apparently R888's are not recommeded as a winter tyre!


Cheers

Mike

DarrenW, Not too far from you, near Lanchester. Don't think I'll be on the road for Church Mouse meet, but considering Croft Track Day on Sat. 21st Oct. if you're interested.

Kurt
