Well I got to the test centre on time unloaded and signed in all going well so far. Visual inspection over and he noticed the really sharp edges on the gear knob and rear reflectors (strange that !!! Reflectors have been through SVA 3 times now Rob, Pat & now me). Next emissions failed co2 @ 4.4 (our snap-on tester said 2.9) only one atempt to sort co2 now about 6.5 (Opps!!!) Speedo only slightly out easy quick fix for me to do now spot on then he drives the car only problem he finds is he can only see his shoulder out of the rear view mirror. We moved this to the left 50mm he was happy. He then said "Were's your van ? Take it and your car off site sort the jobs and then come back in 20 mins. Which we did and 20 mins later co2 is at 1.8 rear reflectors have been sorted mirror stuck back on to the aeroscreen Brake bias drilled and locked and duck tape applied to the gear knob job done!!!!!!! MAC is now mine
Then over the DVLA in leeds with the MAC in hand only to be told we can't give you a reg number untill Tusday as we can't find this & that. Then to really Piss me off work phone me "I know you are on hoilday BUT!!!!!"

Carl
