The only real fail was the noise, which we couldn't try before the test.
The rest would have been almost a fix on the day.

I agree with that David

Ash should be really proud of the Roadster that he has produced ..... It is a stunning example

If I can't have a first time pass, i'll take that list any day of the week

It's shorter than the fail sheet from my Mondeo's MOT last month

not really feeling down. i went in expecting to come away with a list of bits to do.

im just glad that i didnt fail on brakes emissions or self centering as they are all buggars to get correct with out the correct equipment

lets just say i now understand why the iva is more expensive than sva as it takes double the time to go over the car.

Funny you should say that Ash, I was saying to the wife that if it is now an all day test, that'll explain the extra costs involved with the IVA test.

Hold you head up high, you done well

Lets hope you get it sorted & on the road fro Detling

See you at Stoneleigh mate .... Dagging to see your Roadster in the flesh

As an avid follower of your build, it must be said that your experience will help some of the hundred other builders "adjust" their cars to make the IVA easier.

I'd love to hear what tweaks get done to help pass those few little niggles, plus its good to hear AdrianH's experience on the matter. All in all I think its an enormous achievement just to sit the IVA. I'd just like to echo the support and another WELL DONE, I'm positive you'll have it pass in no time.

I think, as every fail comes in... we should have a rectification thread/list.

That way peeps can see the fails and the fixes..

Perhaps Ash will start this off

Ash,

A HUGE well done mate, that is one good fail list , it sounds odd to say that but honestly mate you should give yourself & Dogwood a huge pat on the back.

Thanks for sharing the points of the fail, as it will help us all i,m sure, as there are a few points that we would all get caught out with ( brake T piece / steering column ).

again ... well done to you both .( You & David)

cheers
