My SVA has always seemed a long way off, however it's now less than 3 weeks (22nd April) away... and already I'm starting to get seriously nervous.....
I've butterflies just thinking of it.
The only thing to look forward to is the actual drive to the station.

still waiting for my date- maybe tomorrows post.......

I must say I did enjoy failing my MOT before the SVA, just so I could drive the car again, and the grin factor is brill

I didn't worry too much about the SVA as I knew I had done all I could. Nerves became excitement. I had worked my self stupid before the SVA and getting up the morning of the test was a right bitch.

I did enjoy the SVA and woulndn't have done it any other way.

Good luck Alister, mines on the same day
Scotlad what you you should get is a call from the SVA station to arrange a date, then a letter confirming the date. If you sent your form in more than 3 weeks ago then give the test station a bell. Worked for me.

And mines on the 23rd - day after! Good luck everybody!

Know I gonna fail - just interesting to see what on.

and I've just called SVA Centre to see if they can remove a digit from there bottoms...

All good fun though eh?

Good luck to all you guys taking the SVA. It's a most enjoyable day as 1) you get to drive your car and 2) you get to drive it back home again - lol.

But seriously, don't worry too much, if it fails at least you have a list to work to rather than just guessing (easy to say now i've passed it)

HI ALL
My mot is on the 13th and sva 19th not to far away
Jacko

Went for MOT today.

Great to get it on the road.

Got stopped by the PLOD on the way back. No number plate. I wish they would teach them the law. or at least not to talk about things they obviously dont know anything about.

Anyway couldnt spoil a great day.

Now for the big one in 2 weeks.

Take it you passed

Congratulations, and good luck for the next hurdle

Yes sorry it passed.

Only just passed the emisions but I got the printout, didnt bother with the certificate as its my cousins garage and he did it for free.

I thought you needed to present an MOT certificate for registration? Could be wrong though.

And at least you would have proof if you got pulled again by plod on your way to SVA

No. You dont need an MOT at all, its only for a check over, and a chance to give it a blast

Im not sure now David Jenkins has posted that you require an MOT so Im confused now because I was told it was only a good idea to go for an MOT to let somebody else see it prior to the SVA.
