Honestly, I haven't heard a thing. Baldrick, the guy in the photo trying to make sense of the wiring, has probably hit the bottle by now so I won't hear anything until tomorrow ... well, he does own a pub! Cheers

Quite likely it will fail anyway. The idea is that you take it along to have it tested, it will fail on x number of items, you go away and fix them, then return within a stated period - I think it is up to 10 days - for no extra charge. So it could be a while yet before it is 100% road legal.

As you made it to Billing Tom can we assume it passed with flying colours ?

No money Smego or it would have been on the road a lot sooner. That's life, the roof over yer head always takes priority.
Sorry, forgot to post on here. Yep ... it passed!!!!!!! clapping clapping clapping

The 300 Tdi and auto gearbox combination pulls like a train - 80mph cruising speed and still it kicks down - it's smooth on the road, amazingly it doesn't roll too much (despite having only single shocks all around - I will be fitting doubles on the rear plus heavy duty springs all 'round), and the power steering is a dream. All in all it's a winner.

Next step will be to start fitting it out as a camper - another two years? Hopefully not! Embarassed
