Hi All,
Well, IVA'ed today, it failed, but I am not unhappy.
Had a great experience at Derby, Roy was the tester and what a great guy he is
I will do a proper write up over the next couple of days to help others of what things I had to do / change / pointers, but here are my fail points :-
1) Noise - recorded 102.8 - decibel killers?
2) Park Brake - no reserve travel ( passed efficiency though )
3) Brake performance - should be split 60/40 to the front - mine totally reserved - head scratching time ???
4) Front indicators - we all know this one - simple, remove them and put LEDS on the mirrors
5) Headlamps - lamps putting up and right - should be left!! wrong lenses which I will need to source.
And thats it
Did fail on emissions - double permissible but allowed me to phone a friend, he even rang his Friend who told me how to adjust the carb correctly
Roy tried his best to help me get the car through but the above was not rectifiable on the day.
Great day out, even drove home, loved it
Strangely happy and disappointed at the same time
