Nice one Geoff, rectifying the problems should be a doddle.

Shall we see you at Newark?

All the best

Dave.

Regarding the mirror test - I only scraped through because the tester was 4" taller than me! I think that he gave me the benefit...

However, I realised afterwards that I could (a) swivel the stalks upwards, and (b) rotate the mirrors to give a better view. Option (a) is perfectly within the rules, but option (b) may fall foul of the 'minimum width and height' rule - but my mirrors are quite large.

Could you answer a couple of questions for me?

1. When did he do the emissions check. First/last/ middle

2. how much attention did he pay to seatbelt mounting height? Did he actually measure using a block on seat base?

3. What time did you finish? I'm hoping to get to work after!!!

4. Can you book a re-test there and then?

Thanks
Brian


Were you the Yellow seven I saw heading into the test centre today? (I work just round the corner from there).
How did you get on?

Steve.
