sva pass - leighton buzard - just!
dan__wright - 2/3/09 at 08:07 PM

the indy passed retest today after having the emissions checked on Friday (a service and fixing the zort leak sorted it!)

big thumbs up to Doug the tester, very helpful and really wanted to pass the car.

i was about 3/4 of the way to the test centre when i notice passenger side front arch is pointing up in the air, the front support had snapped off at the weld, had to rip it off at the roadside!

turned up and headed into the office, come back and Doug's looking at the wing stay, luckily he said due to the circumstances he would let it go as hes seen the car with it on, just need to get a new one now!

down to dvla tomorrow, does anyone know what days oxford do inspections and how long they take for home inspections?

I had mine at Leighton Buzzard and they were really helpful.

They let me tweak a few things and tried everything to get the emissions down the first time.

I'll be having my test done at Leighton Buzzard, just waiting for the date. Are there any particular things they look out for?
I know they are doing the job thoroughly, but individual places will have things they focus on more than other particullary in terms of any interpretation.

They are huge sticklers for radius'ing...
