Rich,
No MOT station would give it a ticket without a DVLA certificate of inspection (Engineers Report).
Just covering there arses basically.
Could have got a dodgy MOT but if I was ever pulled by the old bill

they can ask you to produce the DVLA certificate.
Its a common procedure with all new Kit cars.
Problem was I was going by the book

and took it to the DVLA, once they saw it they condemed it from road use and the Log book was stamped

. No way round it after that.
The car was scrapped about 2 months ago (couldn't bare to see someone esle benefit from all the hard work i put in so i had it crushed)

.
I now have a new S2 that all the parts are going onto. I sold one engine and gearbox to buy the new car.
I'll take my photos into Boots and get them to transfer them onto a CD so i can put them on this site.
