SVA Pass
SVA re-test was a doddle and took less than 10 minutes. Two trips to DVLA Worcester and the registration process is complete and we now have 50 miles on on the clock. Only problem so far has been over heating. Have adjusted the ignition timing, tightened up the fan belt which had come loose and fitted some additional "cooling" capacity as can be seen in the photos.
Off to Donnington Park two weekends in a row in the buggy. Renault World Series next weekend followed by Kit Car Show the weekend after.

SVA result
Well, just 2 fail points. I was not expecting a first time pass but am a bit miffed it has to be said. The tester was a very nice chap and was very fair so no complaints really but while doing the brake tests he pulled the hand brake on so hard he destroyed the hand brake cable. As you can see from the photo the cast metal ends were shattered as he yanked the hand brake on. The only thing I can think off is that the holes in the mounting bracket were a bit to big which allowed the lug to pull thru and it then shattered. Even so he must have given it one hell of a pull. "hand brake inopperative"
The other fail was "no self centring"
