3rd time lucky
j30fos - 9/3/04 at 03:21 PM

Well its finally passed

Just got back in from the DVLA, so its all done SVA'd registered and taxed. Just got the plates made, so its legal FINALLY

Can't wait to put the car back to how it was and drive it when I want.

The only thing stopping it coming to stafford on Sunday is the rain.

Cheers Ned, man you dont mess about, that reply took less than a minute :-)

It hasn't sunk in yet, I still think i've got to go in the garage tonight.

Well done, lets hope is not raining on Sunday. Youll have to go into the garage tonight as all the sva bits will need putting in the bin

Well done hope to see you Sunday

Cheers Mk Ninja, I've put a thread in the club events section on this forum, if anyone wants to meet up then let us know where and when, it will be good to put some faces to names, oh and dont laugh if you see my car the wind caught my bonnet this morning and put loads of scratches in it as it blew along the floor

Nah this time 10 mins, oh and another guy, the guy testing the self centering didn't want to come out of the car he went around the test centre 3 times :-), he has a CBR600 and he's thinking of building one of these, he was well interested in the build. I wish I had him first time :-))))))).

Its mad even though nothing had changed the car seemed to drive better on the way home.

Well done, good feeling isn't it?

I was SVA'd at Chadderton late 2002.

I know what you mean about the garage but driving more than compensates.

Be good to see another indy around Rivington possibly?

Cheers,

Colin

Congratulations - just looking at your pics, cool headlights were these on when you passed? Where are they from?

macspeedy - 10/3/04 at 07:50 PM

well done, how did you get on with your headlights?


macspeedy - 10/3/04 at 07:54 PM

am i right in thinking the centre mirror is from mac 1 ...


MK9R - 11/3/04 at 07:51 AM

Well done!!!

See you at stafford??


j30fos - 11/3/04 at 08:01 AM

Hi Macspeedy.

The headlamps failed as there is no beam pattern on them :-). the centre mirror came off the sierra.

The cars finally starting to look like normal again. Just the headlights and rear number plate to put back on and its out for a blast

See you all at Stafford in the bar at 12
