Well its finally happened I got my IVA today!!!   Yeaaahhhh

And what a day to get it  - 11/12/13.  We wont see another sequential date until 1/2/2103 or 90 years!    That's as big an omen as seeing a bright star in the East isn't it!

Especial thanks to Lucky Ed for lending me his trailer.

All I need now is a registration number.

Regards
Ian

Congratulations Ian, you must be chuffed after such a long wait

Did you have any problems getting the car through the test?

[Iancider]

Ed,

Just a tiny one.  I had a flexible brake pipe that would possible touch the wishbone but I was allowed to rotate it 5 degrees to pass.

Regards and thanks
Ian

That's really good to hear.    Can't wait to see it in the flesh. You can't go wrong with a yellow westy.

['The Gaffer']

Sorted!!!

[Iancider]

Thanks guys,

So good to get the enthusiastic feedback. 

Just sooooo hoping that the registration arrives before Christmas.  The kit was last year's Christmas present but it has been like not being allowed to open it for a whole year.  What a tease!

The best part of the test was that the tester suggested I might like to take a lap or two around the (large) test centre.  Wow that felt good

Thanks
Ian

Nice to hear mate.

[bluehornetrider]

Are you going to brave a quick Christmas blast, or wait for the sunshine?

['The Gaffer']

[Iancider]

Sorry for the delay -  I have been getting my new toy very muddy!

Very nice

[bluehornetrider]

Nice quiet blast up the Gorge, very good.  Love to have a go up there knowing that there wasn't going to be anything else on the road.

I was destined to be DIYing all day today but the sun was out and the open road was screaming out to me "it's going to rain for a week" - so you just godda do what you godda do.   

So off we went for a blast  around the Brecons until the light ran out.  I've now got a seriously muddy car and a big smile.    . The engine is begining to loosen up now after 250 miles - the music from under the bonnet is good and sounds even better when played loud! 

[Bulldog Bri]

Love it. Gonna be pushing hard next year for mine to get on te road as well.  (promise YB)
