MKE Midi pass first time today
Hi all, thanks to all of you on here that have helped me over the three years I have been building the Midi, specially Martin Keenan and Dazz. First
time pass today at Nottingham. Can't thank Mark from Mac1 enough, spent this morning with him sorting the emissions and a few other minor
details out then he came to test with us, wouldn't have passed without him. Martin the test guy was spot on explaining what he was checking and
what minor adjustments we needed to do. What I thought was going to be a stressful experience turned out to be really good.
Then went down the road to DVLA gave them the paperwork and payment and the very kind lady said the tax will be in the post in the next few
day's, can't believe they are closing all the DVLA offices, notts closes in December.
Cheers all
Dave
PS make sure your vin plate doesn't have too much info on they are failing now for it and Mark changed mine or it would have failed.

Nice! First time pass
Could you elaborate please, I have my test on the 7th.
My VIN plate has country of origin, manufacturer, chassis and engine number.

Manufacturer and chassis number are all that are needed.

Sorry I missed the follow up to your emissions thread. How did you get on with them?

I went up to Mark at Mac1 and he sorted them out in ten mins, he was really good and came down to the test with me and made some minor adjustments
during the test and bingo we got a pass. Just waiting for registration now.

So they don't let you know at the time what it will, I cannot afford to be given a q?

Well they havent called to say there is anything wrong so I hope it will be a 13, it should be as it is all new except for the engine which has
receipts for recon as new.

I tested it at Cadwell, it was me who put it in the armco!!!! it was a bit lively on the back end though as there was a problem with the diff. First
drive in mine tonight was crack on, front end needs sorting with some softer springs though as it has a mind of its own.
