RobC Posted September 25, 2006 Posted September 25, 2006 All excited now... Finally got the date, needed to phone them though but hey... Earliest is next tuesday so that give me just over a week to get the final bit finished... Fingers crossed nothing goes wrong with the journey down... Quote
RobC Posted September 25, 2006 Author Posted September 25, 2006 Yeah me too... last time I had to take it to the garage for work it didn't make it... but fingers crossed... just need to finish everything off now... Quote
RobC Posted October 3, 2006 Author Posted October 3, 2006 Not that I am excited/nervous or anything but I have just had the worst night sleep in ages.... setting off in an hour to give myself loads of time to get there... support car is backed with nearly everything out of the garage... And not noing what to expect when I get there, today is going to be fun what ever the outcome.... Will report back on what happened later on... fingers crossed and all that, but I am going with a veiw that I built it and I have done the best I could have done but if it fails (which I am expecting it to) I will know what needs to be corrected and how and when for etc... Piccies and more news later on today Quote
Peter M Posted October 3, 2006 Posted October 3, 2006 Good luck. I didnt sleep much that night either.The SVA was not that bad. We will be awaiting the good news. Quote
RobC Posted October 3, 2006 Author Posted October 3, 2006 The good news is I made it back and they did the test, which was a fail (but thats the good news) battery woes still not solved and a flatted battery at the begining nearly spelt the end of the day at 9am... however the test guy was a star and we ended up bump starting it and managed to finish the test with a few minor fails... so REALLY happy with the result... Needs to get a different alt. pulley wheel which will stop this happening again... so thats it wing and a prayer getting home on 50mins charge time at the centre and a few jobs to do... better than what was nearly a fail fail.... and send home with nothing.. lucky I'd say...

Top Cat Posted October 3, 2006 Posted October 3, 2006 Good news it was only a few minor jobs. I was still quite depressed at failing mine first time. But at least you have something to work on, it could have been a page full of faults. It helped a lot when other members reminded me it could have been worse. The end is in sight. Good luck with the retest Quote
