Damn right.

Temptation is to say "you can't imagine how happy I am" but all of you that have gone through SVA know exactly what it's like.....

Couldn't believe it when it passed the emissions. I was so sure it would fail I didnt bother taking the 'quiet' exhaust and had to make the 70 mile trip home and back to fetch it, which was just terrible.

Anyway as is the norm, my sincere thanks to all who have assisted with my daft questions and worries.
Particularly those who eased my angst over clutch feel (you do indeed get used to it)
and especially them that said "dont give up" I'm glad I didn't.

I WANT ONE !!!!!!

You do realise they are going to take it off you when you register it though. Did you have to have it remapped to get the emissions right?

Brilliant. Well done Mate. I'm overjoyed for ya!

Excellent.

Nope, Ian at ST gave me another cat to try and it passed. Took a bit of tickling, but got the result.
They can have the ticket, I already got a copy...

About F#ckin' time
Are you now gonna get some proper number plates or are you gonna stick with the cardboard veriety? I quite liked it. It had a homebuilt charm to it.
Anyway, great to see your there at last. Let me know if you want to go for a run sometime. I promise to keep it on the tarmac this time
cheers

Good old Martin. He'll pass anything (just kidding). Well he did pass my car last Thursday.

Not that far from the truth me thinks...
Seriously, I cant paise Martin and Andy at Notts SVA enough. They go out of their way to get the car through.
If the new Notts VRO office will still process registration while you wait would be worth travelling and getting it all done in one day. Of course that would require a 1st time pass

Yup Martin and Andy were a great help. Martin even bolted our cycle wings back on after we had to reposition them cos my fingers were too fat.

Peterborough VRO still haven't registered our car and it'll be a week Fri since we handed the paperwork in *sigh*

Still whats 1 week after building for 10 months

Well done John thats great news. We'll be seeing you at the next Ackworth meet then?
