Thinking of having an H1 to mess about in.

Had one in the past that I imported in the late 90's - when SVA didn't exist and I just got a three year old one so all I needed to do was get it through and MOT. Simple.

I am looking at bringing in a Wagon - probably a 2002/03 - so it will need to go through SVA.

Is anyone familiar with the issues an H1 might present? I've seen a few around so assume it must be possible?

Thanks!

which will still require certain items included for an IVA! rear orange indicators,white front side lights and a rear fog light to start with.

Main problem I had with mine was the electrics and also the braking system. The lighting circuit is very poor, and the hand brake in particular had tobe modified to get it to uk standards. I had a company nera blackpool sort the whole thing out for me.
