Woooohoooo Passed on the first go
Really good day started out at 6 this morning drove the first 20 miles to the test center then put it on the trailer. The drive was good but it did
manage to break my exhaust rubber but luckily we arrived a bit early and cobbles together a replacement.
Went through the speed test with a little adjustment then to my supprise sailed throught the emmisions test!! then onto under car all good, brakes
next which wasnt so good the fronts were fine but the rears were not stopping at all so he let me take it out and bleed them in the car park last a
noise test 100db and to finish just has to add some trim to my tunnel cover
was impressed with the weight as well with a full tank and no driver 438kgs
Thanks to MNR and everyone on here for their help
Pics to follow when i get a min later

Paperwork is with the DVLA but they couldnt see the car today so have to drag it the 50 miles again in a week or so for the inspection

Nope but he did like the fact it was routed inside protective heat resistant foil
