Best of luck with the IVA.
They won’t like that fuel filler cap and surround.

How come it has a registration number if it hasn't been IVAd?
Cheers, Clive.

They wont like the L542 rear lights either as the edges don't have a 2.5mm radius.
My next project is ready for IVA

There are plenty of things they wont like for the IVA. Thats why i mentioned the hurdle i have to jump. Its going to take a few weekends of fettling.

Plate is the number that will go on it. I have it on retention. I used trade plates at the weekend
