Yeahy! Well done

What did they do about the hand brake adjustment?

Dunno if you spotted my question in the other thread: How did they wire your rear lights to get them to work for normal and brakes?

Our rings are a bit bright for normal rear light use in the dark.

Sorry patrick I did see the qeustion and have passed it on but haven't had an snwer yet - I've only had brief phone conversations with Vindi in the last week or so.
No idea about the handbrake either!!

No problem Andy whenever you have time

No doubt all of us have lots of SVA questions

Great news, Andy. You must be dying to go for your first drive

We are all keen to see the final result and pictures of what Vindi did to get it passed,

thanks

Anyone got any better idea than me on the registration process? Birmingham or Worcester knowledge would be useful.
Just rang DVLA and they're posting me the forms and they've said send them back and wait, they can't say how long.
I asked about taking them in myself and they said "don't know" maybe you can but don't bring the vehicle in because it will need inspecting (strange statement). They will only book an inspection once they've processed the forms and they couldn't tell me how long that would take!!
Why oh why can't the SVA test include whatever the DVLA need to inspect?

Yes, very well done Andy. Seems I am lagging behind everyone else a bit but I'll get there eventually.
As for registering your baby, just remember which country you are in, where there are about a dozen managers for everything but very little actually gets managed properly !!! ( Sorry, I think I have been working for the NHS for too long.)

Andy well done on the SVA pass.
Now you have to register the car this took a couple of weeks for me as i wanted a age related plate. I had to get a MOT done on the car and fill out all the forms once i handed these in to my local office they organised the inspection at my home. They told me it could take up to six weeks for the inspection as the inspector travels around a fairly large area. I was lucky and the inspector was about to visit my town so he came within a week. Should be similar process for you.
