IVA PASS
IVA PASS
After about 8 years of building both the car and the funds for the build the day finally came.
Passed at Southampton on Friday 1st May at the second attempt.
Pictures of the beast here.

A very enjoyable drive back home with an ear to ear grin inside the crash helmet.
Now the DVLA registration horrors begin.

Many thanks for the comments.
The engine is a Vauxhall V6 out of a Vectra connected up to an Omega gearbox.
The whole can is a pick and mix of components including Sierra running gear and Granada Cosworth LSD.
