Pass at Exeter (at last!)
At last I've got my SVA!!! 
After grief with the MK's speedometer, tow car problems and a week away, it's eventually passed.
DVLA now have the MAC and other paperwork so it's up to them now.
I'd like to thank the many people who run and contribute to this wonderful forum for all the help, hints and tips, dos and don'ts, both
direct and indirect, that have eased the coming of this day after (only) 6 1/2 years.

When I picked up the chassis and bits from MK back in August 03 I thought I'd be on the road the following Easter!
Little did I realise that 2009 followed straight on from 2003!

Well done and congratultions!
Did you get it inspected by the DVLA today, too?
(He's usually in the office on Mondays and when I passed, I trailered it around there straight after and persuaded him to inspect it there and
then.)

Nice one!
What a coincidence that the end of your planned 6.5year build was just in time for SVA.

Thanks Andrew,
Mark came to my house to inspect the car, paperwork, provenance, etc.
I had taken the car to DVLA Exeter a few weeks ago but chose a day when he wasn't on site. Of course, nobody else could have done it in his
absence 
So I left the inspection request form with them and he contacted me shortly after to fix the visit. Genuinely interested in the car and not your
average jobsworth!
I just hope the rest of the DVLA folks are as much on the ball and get my registration fixed up in good time. I'll be twitching every morning as
Mr Postie approaches!

Hi John
I was in the blue luego that was being sva tested before you.
Your car looked great. I didnt get a chance to speak as i got caught up in the events of the day and just wanted to get back and sort out the points i
failed on.
I will hope to get retested shortly.
I hope you get your registration sorted quickly and get to enjoy the car after the time spent on building it.
I have spent 4 years on mine and cant wait to get on the road.

Richwill,
Your car looks good.
I trust you don't have too many things to fix.
I must say, Byron's a top guy - very fair.
Hopefully see you out and about soon!
John.
