SVA tomorrow!

[tribbles]

After almost 2 years of building (with an 5-month break in the middle), my SVA is tomorrow (8am, so a very early start - especially with a Monday rush hour to contend with).

Yay!

Good luck Jason

Ta, Mike

Yes, good luck. And remember to take lots of cable ties, insulation tape and a few tools.

[Ferg]

..and clean and tidy is good. As is a subserviant attitude!

[Davi]

Good luck mate, be expecting a full report by mid day then yeah?

[tribbles]

Thanks everyone - I've been checking all the paper work, and getting bits like cable ties together.

Midday tomorrow - should be possible; depends on what time I make it back

[tribbles]

It passed! Just off to see if I can get it registered now...

[grahambell]

Congratulations mate!

[Davi]

well done.

[ricola]

Nice one! Hope the registration goes smoothly for you, I found that the most frustrating bit!

Excellent news.....

[tribbles]

Thanks guys - the Maidstone DVLA centre only inspect kit cars on Tuesdays, so I didn't have all the receipts and proof of ID with me. But I may not need to get it inspected; won't know until tomorrow anyway...

[RazMan]

I think the inspection will have to be carried out - they will photograph various bits of the car too.

Well done - its about time too

Congratulations it's great when you get that MAC in your hand. SVA was easy dealing with the DVLA was a pain and took 3 weeks to get the number plates and tax disc, especially gutting when the weather is good!!

[tribbles]

Inspection will be Thursday, but everything's been paid for (tax and registration fee).

I should at least have the car home by the end of the day (it's going to be trailered anyway).

[tribbles]

Now taxed, plated and on the road. DVLA were surprisingly easy to deal with - even with a personal plate.

They weren't going to do it until Monday, but I really need to get some shake-down miles on it before I take it to France to see my brother, so I'm willing to lose 26 days of tax for that (in the grand scheme of things, it's not that much - plus I get to stagger the tax between the Aeon and my Mondeo).
