After 18 months of build time taking a standard 1.2 8v to what you see below, I have finally paid up for insurance and got its first MOT tomorrow

I'm pretty sure its going to fail on emissions but if thats all I will be happy

It didnt pass but I expected that with the way its drinking petrol.
So failed on all emisions tests, also failed on beeing to low so the guy said just whack it up on the retest(joy of coilovers)

Thats it time to get some mapping done and clean it up

Mines way lower than that and passed?

And I'm running phase 3.5 on a LET and sailed thorugh the emmisions? If yours failed the emmisions, when you do get it to a state to pass it will probably run a lot better for you

Where did you have it tested??

I'll come round and sort the emissions for you, now we can road test it a bit

On the too low frotn, just take 4 bits of 2x6 and put them on the rap to raise the car that way.

Yes the bloke was a more mature nature in a quite village at least I know he's not going to it for a joy ride as he can only just get in.
Its not to effort much to wind it up. Its just the emissons I need to concentrate on now
