Registration arrived last week and number plates were fitted in time for a couple of weekend blasts. Yes - I'm now on the road with my 5Exi-R (after an 8 year build time!).
Not modded the suspension yet, so it's lively on poor B roads and just a little nervous at times on a good A road, but boy does she go. Very happy.
Thanks to everyone who offered help and advice, and if you're still building then keep on at it - it's definitely worth it in the end.
It is a sweet feeling, and people who aren't into kit cars are really impressed!
I found DVLA to be really helpful - just a bit slow but then I assumed they have a lot of extra stuff coming through with local offices no longer processing new registrations.
