Mitcham, anyone testing there soon?
James - 27/7/06 at 11:56 AM

Right, re-test at Mitcham tomorrow lunchtime.

Is there anyone else going there soon who needs anything cleared up in advance that I can ask the inspector?

What I mean is things lilke "is this ok? How should this be done for SVA? etc. etc." type questions.

Not going to be there long but if I can help anyone one then might as well when I've got the guys undivided attention!


Cheers,
James

Erm, will see how it is and whether my girlfriend is willing. She's navigating (pity she doesn't know left from right) so will see how it goes.

Plan is to go to Wimbledon DVLA on way home from the SVA so will see how things are for time/traffic etc.


As for the waz from the now violin string cat, no I haven't tried to get it out yet. Ned may have mentioned his Seven is the latest 'donor' to contribute to my car by very kindly lending me his seats!!!
I didn't feel the inspector gagging on the stench would be conducive to a pass!

Cheers,
James

James, any chance you can ask them about the rear boot area, I was going to use a torneau type thing with poppers holding it on , that way I can get to the fuel filler cap(which is a locked one) and at other times all is hidden, I can't use a solid piece of anything as my roll bar has back stays that go down to just below the top rail ? Make any sence ??
Thanks Matey

Mine was fine with a tonneau (hemmed sheet of tonneau vinyl) that was held in place just with sticky back velcro.

Needless to say the summer heat has killed the glue the velcro peels off the vinyl!

Still passed though.

Cheers,
James

Stunning answer I was starting to panic, not that I'm due to sva in the near future anyway
Thanks
