IVA Pass!!
Coopz - 28/11/11 at 05:42 PM

Well after a long hard slog I finally passed my IVA Retest today!! What a great feeling you can't knock the smile off my face

The emissions were a nightmare! I took her to an MOT Station last week, and after an hour or so found a map that would pass with the AIS system blocked off because installed it was pushing my Lambda out (Also found an exhaust leak and rebuilt the exhaust new gaskets and silicone sealing all the joints)

Went to the IVA today still nervous and uploaded this map imagining what it might be like for the tester to turn round and say Good job, passed! Instead he turned round and said your miles out...My head dropped again! he allowed me a little tweak with the map and said lets go fingers crossed and it passed

I just want to say Thanks to everyone. This site and Locost community has been helped me more than any build manual could. Also a big thankyou to Andy Bates for all his help. cheers mate!

Thanks guys...Just took a quick look at the DVLA paperwork I think I prefer building too pushing paper

Very well done! - just in time for some ICY, Snowy Doh-nuts!!! Take it easy out there, and good luck with the DVLA - I found DVLA registration to be very easy and straightforward.
