Woohoo, IVA pass first time this morning at Nottingham.
Thanks very much to Martin at nottingham test station, what a top bloke.
Just got to sort out all my paperwork for DVLA now.
Thanks to everyone on here for the help and advise during my build.
Excellent news - well done! Great feeling isn't it??? 

Enjoy! Good feeling.. Take it essay though once on road..
Nice one! Should have 'plates for it in time for the Indian Summer...
What year R1 is it and how were the emmisions?
Also cheers to Mark at Mac#1.
2003 R1 with a power commander, just scraped through on emissions.
Feels great.
Thanks guys.
Well done that man! Hope you get sorted with DVLA quick enough.

yes i used dvla nottingham.asked if i had built it with old parts or new because if old and was going to be a q plate then after iva i would have had to get an mot and then get it inspected but as i had used all new parts except the engine that i had reconditioned to as new standard i didnt need it inspecting or an mot.all i needed was some reciepts and my iva pass certificate.was only there for about 10 mins and like the man said i would recieve docs back within 5 working days and today was the 5th day.good luck
Thats good mate, did you have to show them a 'certificate of newness' or just reciepts for the kit and all major components ?
there was a form to say where i had got the major components from but really all i had to give them were some reciepts that i had.
congratulations
Well done on a 1st time pass too.
just about to send off for my IVA test ...gulp.
cheers

All sorted, got my new '61' reg. on my MK today and been out for a blast.
Over the moon.
Is it normal for the DVLA to keep your IVA pass certificate ?

and yes, they keep your MAC, best to photocopy it before you send it off if you want a copy *
