I wouldn't mind either coming over if only to lend my tools.

V6 closest I have been so far is looked under the bonnet and driven one, scary place imo lol ;D

I am well up for this. :)

Would be a great days work with a few of us and we would all learn from it (Mark excepted).
Alan would be a benefit too because he has done exactly the same job.

I would also offer to come and help / watch & learn but rather fear there is probably enough people already.

Best of luck and hope the damage is not too far reaching!

What a great community spirt this is!!!!!!!!!! ;D

fantasic isn't it? Wonder if there is a World Record for the amount of people working one 1 vauxhall omega at anyone time!  ;D

If it is a replacement engine on the cards, it would be fantasic for everyone to learn bits about the car (apart from MarksDTM)  ;)

I would be interest in Cambelt replacement, its not something that needs doing now but would be usefull for the future.

We could also create a shed load of Maintaince guides too

Depends if he wants us all there at one time  LLOOL

Everyone could do something , even if it was polishing the car whilst the experts fix the engine, it would be like " pimp my ride, in Milton Keynes "  ahahahhahahaha hehehhehehe
