Bummer! Just bought CKC and there's no such ad in there. Should have just looked in it first.
Anyone got any ideas or contacts
Someone to manage finishing bits on a Dax Rush and managing the IVA & registration process, plus sorting any IVA failures

I know, and I have visited them. Trustworthy owner, and a complete IVA aficionado working there, who filled me with total confidence. Only issue is that they are full of half-completed projects, quoted me two months waiting list a month ago, and yesterday they told me they have no idea when they can fit me in, and if the IVA date comes up any sooner, "we" can always delay it! Delay it???!! After getting this car looking wonderful and watching the summer approach very quickly, why on earth would I consider delaying??!!!!! I even suggested overtime, and the use of my own garage, but it fell on deaf ears. If only they were in the 21st Century. LOL

Do you know what?
F**k it, i'll do it myself
I'm going to do the IVA myself, undoubtedly fail (but seemingly everyone does first time) and then get a definitive list for effectively £90 that I can then use as a tick list for the following month
Simples!
Here goes!
Surely though, there is a market for IVA technicians as a counter to the IVA

Does that mean we can see a list of bits left to do, so we can offer supoort and as suggested maybe a weekend invasion?

As Richard says, once we have seen the "possible" fail sheet, and assuming were not rolling about in agony laughing :lol:

we can help


I put this message, on one of our other members posts earlier today

"I would not worry too much about IVA, as the test is only a guide, and if it fails then you have I believe 6 months to rectify the problems and arrange a retest, yes it is costly, but coming home with a list of MUST do items, is not a bad fail

good luck!! "

Thats was probably spelt wrong, or had some grammer, that the "grammer police have to have a moan at
