Another MAC#1 ZR Ready For The Road
Hi All
Just a quick note to say that my MAC#1 ZR passed SVA today first time.
A few minor tweeks were needed - 2 cable to secure some wires and a quick twist on the steering rack to help self centering. All in all - it was all
over and done and the certificate was in my hand within 2 hours.
It’s been a great journey building the car, lots of highs and smiles and thank fully not that many lows. Mark and Col at MAC#1 have been outstanding
right from me ordering my chassis to the final moment’s right before SVA. The true “one-stop-kit-car-shop”. How they have put up with me and my
blonde moments is beyond me.
I did have so many things that I wanted to say…. but now I have come to writing the post my fingers have gone dry. So I will now stop rambling and
attach some pictures of the car at Nottingham SVA which will hopefully say more word than I can.
Onwards and upwards – DVLA man here I come.

Well done mate, I was the guy you met at the sva centre (watch those toes !)
It's nice to watch someone else being a bag of nerves - brought back memories (or nightmares ??).
Take your time and enjoy
PS.
Couldn't resize the pics could you - I've only got a 19" monitor !
