SVA test when it rains?
02GF74 - 30/11/05 at 10:00 AM

Does the car get examined in or outdoors during SVA?

What do folks who don't have full windscreen nor weather gear do if it rains on SVA day?

so does the tester get wet too? or does it just pass the car so he can finish sooner?

Lets all hope he calls it a day and writes you out the necessary certificate!

The SVA tests are carried out indoors.

Apart from the self centering, rear view mirrors and noise tests.

It looked like it might rain at mine so I taped a tonneau on just in case (could use some plastic). It can be easily removed, so shouldn't cause any problems.

Didn't want that nice new interior getting wet!!

That's my experience too.

It's also my experience that if you don;t have a screen/weather gear you get wet!

Got badly soaked coming home from my SVA , but I didn't care , I had a pass cert in pocket......

First test we went to we missed by 1/2 an hour but we didn't care much as we had a nice drive down there and back.

It was pi$$ing it down both there and back, but I drove it there and my brother drove it back (even though I was soaked).

Just empty your pockets first, otherwise all your paperwork will turn into mush.
