IVA passed!

Passed my retest at Norwich today. They were pretty relaxed about this one - just went through the list of failures, checked that I'd addressed each one and ticked it off without trying to nitpick about whether I'd done enough for each issue. Indicator position was marginal - apparently the outside edge was exactly 400 mm from the outside edge of the car, but it passed.

Had a nice drive back, thought about having a little race with a 911 turbo, but resisted the urge.

Off to Peterborough now to get it registered.

well done. as said, we need some pics.





We gain knowledge faster than we do wisdom!

Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, thoroughly used, totally worn out and loudly proclaiming... "f*ck, what a trip!"

Congrats!!





I no longer run Furore Products or Furore Cars Ltd, but would still highly recommend them for Acewell dashes, projector headlights, dominator headlights, indicators, mirrors etc, best prices in the UK! Take a look at http://www.furoreproducts.co.uk/ or find more parts on Ebay, user names furoreltd & furoreproducts, discounts available for LCB users.
Don't forget Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses, made to your exact requirements in any of around 16 colours. http://shop.ebay.co.uk/furoreproducts/m.html?_dmd=1&_ipg=50&_sop=12&_rdc=1

Doh, got to DVLA office five minutes after it closed. Will have to wait until the weekend I guess. Pictures here and writeup here:

Very happy, still lots to do though - windscreen, vinyl wrap, wheels (maybe), finish sorting traction control, get tonneau fitted... it's almost like it will never be "finished" :-)
