Does anyone have any knowledge as to the format of the new test and the additional hoops to jump through? Any help is gratefully appreciated.

Thank you. 208 pages of sheer joy - I reached page 83 before my eyes crossed. As far as I can see, it doesn't differ substantially from the SVA or have I missed something?

Many thanks to anyone who has digested the new manual and compared it to the old.

From what I've heard some of the new issues involve fuel tank certification, protective steering evidence, fitting headrests, noise limit reduced from 101db to 99db, identification of warning lights.
Cheers, Clive.

Wills, the mirrors are the standard Hawk items, for the locks I used a self-made t-handle with self made aluminium cover plates and the fuel cap was from Talon Sports cars, who helped me with the SVA process(Highly recommended). My car is a FIA and I will be picking it up in the UK on Friday again.
