Eye, good luck with the test, this was mine beginning of Dec 08
I was quite fun trying to find the markings on the pavement so he could do the rear view mirror test and the self centering was also quite
interesting!
Enjoy the day, its not as bad as some may make out.
Cheers

good luck,i had les .top guy he came across as a bit abrupt at first but im sure he wanted to pass the car as he was very fair and gave me time to fix
a couple of fail points so i could get my mac.
nicola at ipswich is very helpful though parking is an absolute pain with a trailer.hope it all goes well for you tomorrow
Thank matty_64.
I'll let you know how I got on.
If you are in town anytime pop into Nix in Abbeygate St. and introduce yourself.
Nick
hi nick how did it go today?me and the missus will probably pop in on saturday.got my plates today,just got in freezing with a very big grin on my
face
I'm exhausted 5.30 starts in the snow do not agree with me.
FAILED.
can only be described as a good fail though
Tested be Jim nice guy who did every thing he could to enable a pass.
I had a couple of edges that would have taken about 2mins to fix but half way through the brake test the fronts started failing, I've not had a
look yet but it must be either the M/C or balance bar.
Consequently still not sure on set up before pinning the bar, which Norwich will not let us do there so I'll have to take a chance and pin before
going for retest.
I called in at Ipswich DVLA on the way home, cor it is tight in there car park, Nicola was very helpfull and age related plate on the way as soon as
they have a MAC in their hand, hopefully next wk.
Nick
bad luck with the fail but not to much to sort out.
it's daft that they won't let you set up the brakes then pin them, surely that's the safest way

I took mine down to my local MOT station to test the brake resistance at each end, then set it accordingly.... same with the headlights and tracking .....
