My MNR V+, ideas?
As you know my car failed sva, im now struggling for money due to the current climate and not sure what too do.
bought car back in 2006, its failed sva for emmission, i want to either sell it for spares, sell it as a whole or want someone to take it off me and
finish it for a fixed cost as its 99.9% complete it only failed sva on emmissions but i havent got the time to do it my self and i no longer trust
anyone in the north east as ive been ripped off too much.
i really do want to keep it, but i cant even face opening the garage its been shut in there for over 2 months now.
Any sensible ideas?

if its only emmisions it seems stupid not to finish it off?
How close was it on emissions?
Im sure plenty of people on here can help get your emissions down

Emmisions doesnt have to be an expensive job to fix.
How long can i resist the temptation to drop a V8 in?

Will you now need to pay full IVA cost, seeing as you have missed the SVA cut off date?

Can't you just put a cat on near to the manifold? even if it already has one.

I would love to help you Kris, but as you know I have too many things in the garage, no money/job and I've sold my trailer....
So, may I suggest you book the IVA, and take it up to see what happens. Your car is 100% after all.
If it fails on emissions again, which it shouldn't?? would you not like to talk to MNR and ask them to turn it round?
Or, how about just giving it to MNR and asking them to get it through? Probably would be easier than struggling with Newcastle Vosa??
I really feel for you and hope you don't loose heart too much.

Lots of people say they can but every one who has tried has failed, then its been too 2 garages who couldnt either.
as you know steve my current job makes it near impossible for me too take a day off especially too do a iva and then theres no trailer and no tow
car!
My car is a vortx RT PLUS 2.0 zetec, camed, GXSR thottle boddies, raceleda uprights callipers, megasquirt, cat and a LC1 lamda sensor etc etc. no
expense spared when i bought every thing, not now though. cant afford a bean.

Kris, if this is something MNR can sort for you, there must be someone
on here who could help get the car there. I would gladly trailer it
there if you were just a little bit closer.
Any takers ??

Put details of where you want the car moved from/to and you will get companies bidding for your business, will be well under £100 to ship to MNR IMHO
if they can help.
Opinions are like backsides..

It's a bit further than I thought, but £115 so far...
Might get some better bids after Xmas, as very few will look at it at the moment.

Right then Kris, sorry I've sold the trailer but I still have the tow car. If you can find/borrow/rent a trailer I'll drag it down to MNR
for you.

its worth paying the £5 to have a 'featured' listing.
Costing me £90 all in to have a M3 taken from Reading to Lincoln.
