I was interested in where the washer bottle was located (along with checking the steps I&#8217;d already completed like he front suspension)\u2026 it was on the lower end of the passenger footwell where I&#8217;d seen others placed. That was in contrast to where I had seen one placed on a 420R a few weeks earlier, which was on the N\/S top chassis rail (almost impossible to fill from there). But more on washer bottles in a later post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I had a chat with both Nick and Paul (the sales manager) about IVA (Individual Vehicle Approval). I&#8217;m starting to think about how I&#8217;m going to get this car tested. Williams can do the Post Build Check (PBC) but not transport the car to\/from IVA or do the paperwork. I&#8217;ll need to ring the local IVA test centre in Avonmouth and find out what sort of wait time there is for a test at the moment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Williams
