Pre-IVA Photos

[Eddy]

Looking really good Dave. Its quite hard to tell any IVA points from pics, but looks like you've got trim/covers in all the usual places.

Might be worth getting someone to look over it in person if possible to see if there are any bits you might have missed

Looks Very Nice.

looking good Dave ....two things and not sure about both.... lambda bung and overlength bolts on pedals, but like I say I am not sure if they would be an issue

Looks great David, although it looks like you are using Joan Collins' camera.

Would be good to see those dash lights in action.

Cheers

Thanks for having a look everyone.

The lambda bung has had a fillet machined on the plug and i've also sanded a radius on the boss itself.

Interesting thought on the pedal bolts - will have to read the manual again.

Another one that has been suggested on another forum is to cut the windscreen wiper stalk off in case the inspector interprets it as being for a later screen. Just ordered a spare unit so I can replace if I do fit a screen.

And Stot - a specilial photo for you Note that the handbrake, sidelight and battery are especially sharp and well defined - much better than the others which came with the kit

[Stot]

Oh yeah they came out better than I had thought.

Cheers
Stot

Well - no turning back now - paperwork is in the post

[davidimurray]

Having submitted my iva forms 3 weeks ago i've been chasing vosa through the week, forms were passed to local test centre on Monday and they said to ring back today if I hadn't heard anything.

So rang back today and after being passed back and forth for about 15 min they eventually put me through to the test centre as they were not allowed to give me the direct number. Spoke to a very nice lady who explained that a guy called Bob Stafford does the tests and that he organises all the tests and paperwork so would need to speak to him. Only problem is he is very busy doing tests and rarely in the office so she gave me his mobile number Slightly worried when his number had 666 in it! Gave him a ring and had a nice chat.he explained how busy he was and that earliest possible date would probably be around 2nd week of sept He even asked what day I would like, when I said any he cheekily replied 'is the right answer'.

Feel a lot more relaxed after chatting with him and in his own words next time I speak to him will be to give me my test date.
