SVA at Nottingham Today (Now with Pics)
I'lll make this quick as I've drunk far too much beer:
Passed SVA 1st time today at Nottingham
Couldn't have done it without the help of Mac#1 who have been brill and spent a day with me.
Only needed a bit of foam here and there and nothing major to correct while Mr SVA has his tea break.
Roll on DVLA inspection.

Well done, Pat.
You must've put a spurt on in the last few weeks!! (I thought you were roughly at the same stage of build as me. Looks like I'll have to
get my skates on!)

Well done mate.
Beware of the Goldfish in the tulip mines. The ONLY defence against them is smoking peanut butter sandwiches.

No need to joke - it was and I owe a lot to this forum and their decisions, even Rorty and Syd back in the old days when I was making the front
bones!

Car was very SVA friendly to start with so hardly had to put any trim on anywhere and one of the only mods is gonna be my Racetech mirrors (cage
mounted).
Roll on DVLA inspection.

Spot on Pat!
You'll be using Huddersfield or Sheffield VRO won't you?
yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

Cheers all.
DVLA Leeds - been trying to get them to come out since March.
Last Friday it was still a 4 week waiting list for a home inspection - they are shi*e.
inspector rang me on Monday to say he can come on Thursday, but then he's not back in the office until the following week and doesn't want
to post the paperwork.
Do you think he'll let me take it all off him and take it to the DVLA by myself on Friday morning?
Thanks,
Pat...
