Hi Guys
just wanted to have it confirmed , but at what age does an SVA test become no longer required ??? ( i think its over 5 years ?? ) is that right ?

Also what adjustments would be required to get a gen2 through an MOT ??

1) fit rear fog light ( illuminated )
2) headlight adjustment
3) ?????

must be more than that surely ?????

thanks guys
speak to you soon

Just put mine through its MOT. They don't like orange side lights at the front of the car. I bought an illuminated red switch which I mounted on a piece of hardboard and fitted in place where the ashtray mounts. Took the power from the back of the cigarette lighter. Baz had run a wire under the centre console to the rear of the car. I painted one of my reversing lights red and used this as the fog lamp. It passed smile

If you need help I'm sure the guys on here will help you. Just shout smile

Yes, I think he meant to say 'unscrupulous thieves' rage

So have you applied for a grant to build a new Hen House now Tom biggrin Lets face it if the ministers can get public monies to build houses for their ducks, you might get some funds for a new building biggrin
