To Dartford for PBC and SVA
The day had come to drive to Datford for the post build check. They are also going to SVA and register the car for me, but the SVA appointment isn't until 25/11 so there's a week and a bit to wait. Here's some pictures of the finished car.
I had to fill the car up with petrol and Lucy was following in her car loaded up with tools in case it all went wrong. After telling her I was probably going to sit around 60 I shot off down the A22 and onto the M25 doing around 80 - the car felt so comfortable! It was a bit cold, but I didn't find it amazingly windy. I was surprised at how supple the rear suspension felt and how straight and planted the car was.
Dropped the car off and went through my list although I'm not sure they were really listening. I'll mail Simon with it on Monday as well.
