That's what gets me, the shyte that gets through ITV! rolleyes
Then they come up with BS like that. have you seen the side repeaters on a Seven? They're about as big as your thumb! I bet the number is irelivent anyway.
I'd play them by sicking something temperary on, from a Seat. biggrin
I would think they are probably just hanging out for the backhander.

I had a chap from Town Hall Planning mess me about like that for over a year. I thought fk him! He wasn't going to get anything out of me for being a cun*
I bothered him so much in the end, he passed me onto someone else upstairs, to get rid of me. Got my planning the next week.

I also know of a guy here who imported a lovely classic Merc SL cabrio, the "Engineer" at the ITV station wouldn't pass it, becuase he said there was a number short on the VIN! (We're talking matching numbers, genuine classic here) In the end he had to take a punch set, and ask the guy which number he'd like stamped at the end of the VIN. He stamped it on in front of the guy, and the tester passed it. I've been living in Spain/Balearics since 92, and some of the idiotic things I see still wind me up! ranting

Note to self......stop being a winging ex-pat!

Anyway, the H1 V8 is from John Hartley. driving It's my bonkers project I'm doing becuase I can. Can't wait to see the "Engineers face when I have to take it for the ITV test. It'll probably never get on Spanish plates without the dirty backhander. But hey, when in Rome....
Note to self, fit stroen side repeaters smile
