Remember to take loads of cable ties etc and electricians tape for the test
Good luck.
I'm trailering it and I'm taking the contents of my garage with me.

And they do read forums like this to see what goes on...........


One tester confirmed this in a conversation about IVA.

OMG I hope XCweather is wrong!



In other news a glued a bit of trim back on that had become detached. And I torqued all the diff ring gear bolts to 80nm with loctite.

edit: At best heavy rain and wind here and at test station, at worst heavy snow and wind. Bollocks to that, I've just phone the IVA station and got my date moved to the 17th March.
