Good to see a car that;s almost finished - good moral booster for those of thus not so far down the line!!

So - have you booked the SVA test yet then?

Looking good! I cant wait to see our Sportster in that state of build!

What size wheels width/offset/tyre size have you got on there and are you using spacers?

Also is that the Marlin exhaust for M20 powered Sportsters?

Wheel sizes are:
Front: 17" 7j rims with 205/40-17 tyres
Rear: 17" 7j rims with 225/45-17 Tyres
I have fitted 15mm hubcentric spacers on the back to bring the wheels off the inner wing.
Yes the exhaust is the Marlin M20 system complete with £970 bill.

My SVA is booked for 24th April at my local Test centre only 3 miles away so dont get to drive it much before I get there.

Still have a little work to complete such as the bunch of wires in the passenger footwell got my electrical man doing that. Also need to remove mirrors as they wont pass the test and I think the steering wheel may fail as well.

Thanks for the info

Yeah that wheel will probably fail as its not got squishy bits round the middle. I've kept my donor wheel for the SVA.
