I wanted to have a nice big update about roadworthy certificate/re-registration, but I've been painting the house (we are on a deadline for the new baby).

I have got it completely ready for the check, so its just a matter of finding time to book it in and do it.

On a side note, I found these very cool 80's seats.  They are HOIP which is a German company that made lots of cool accessories for BMW, Mercs , Audis and VWs in the 80's.  I think they would look great when recovered.

Sorry for the delayed updates.

I finally got my Roadworthy Certificate yesterday which means I can get regoed and on the road!

They picked up on 7 little things:

- The Seal around the boot/hatch had a 10mm gap at the end.
- Exhaust hangers were knackered
- Steering rack boot is ripped
- The rubber boot under the car that protects the gear lever was cracked.
- Windscreen washers weren't aimed correctly
- The underside of the engine needed a degrease
- Spare wheel strap wasn't done up


All sorted now!

They are fussy compared to NZ.

Well those things are quite easy to rectify and they stop fumes into the cabin so I can understand them pointing them out.
Good work Bryce.

Finished the majority of the house painting so I pulled Andy out the garage for a quick clean and side shot

Small world huh. Did you see his 4 door turbo Mk1?  That thing hauls, or hauled, some serious ass.

Well, you only get a roadworthy done when you buy/sell a car.  There are no other inspections over the life of the vehicle, unlike NZ's Warrant Of Fitness.
