You,d have your IVA paid for straight away if they "paid by the kilo Les" .......me.......I,d have to wait till whatever they took off had grown again, & sell it again

I daren,t tell swmbo "how much it will cost to get on the road", IVA, reg fee, insurance, tax & fuel money to get there & back ....gulp.

cheers

Andy, remember some things don't grow back, be careful what you sell are you heading down this year?

Kind regards

John

I best keep what I,ve got then LOL,

If my car has passed the IVA in time then I might try & get down to the show in my Roadster, & visit a few friends whilst I,m down there.

My target is to have it on the road in time for my next birthday in November only 5 months behind schedule, which will be 19 months build time in total.

cheers
andy

I,m in a similar position to Gus , I reckon if I put in 3 solid weeks worth of work on the car it,ll be ready for its test,
not alot left to do to be honest, 3 weeks is maybe me being too generous but then I don,t feel I,m being pressured if I give it more time that it actually needs.

If its passed & on the road in time for the show I,ll try to get there.....gulp...thats nigh on 500 miles each way

cheers
andy

If they paid by the Inch (height you dirty buggers) i'd be able to pay for all of us. Too far for us to justify going though - 1000 mile round trip thats £400 just for fuel for 2 vehicles then everything else to pay.

Shame......AndyH
