Following with interest!

The seats fought back, they fitted before but had to wrangle them to fit. Vinyl paint still tacky as well. PIA for me to post pics on here.

Nice to hear, did you change to 10W40, too? This is what I use in my Y26SE.

I've just bought a pattern crank shaft/position sensor for my Smart!! 

Dealer wanted £164+vat! Pattern Hella sensor was almost £45 delivered ..... 

Retrieved TPC from Gatwick Long stay. The ground all down the right side was covered in glass.

This once happened to my dad in Barcelona airport car park - having a British plate on it, it wasn't a rare occurence. They took his pocket knife and 200 pesetas out the centre console, but left his extensive music collection. He wasn't sure whether to be grateful or put out at this result 

Good news. 

We need pics. 

Whatever happened to a member called Well hung or wellung, or similar....
I believe he had his collar felt at some point.

Really!?!. Oh Eck!!

All the main ones are still here, great to see.. Be good to hear if Webby The Bear is ok..and hopefully not dead or at HMP. 

I bought the car for this purpose. My GTC eats 2400kms per month and I wanted to divide this by two with another car, which could be at the same time a very comfortable and original car.

First I wanted a C5 2.0HDi Hydractive but I found this Omega. 2 of my friends converted their V6 to ethanol and I know it works perfectly. So, next move is to put 6 z20let injectors, and fully refurbish the cooling system. With cooling and timing belt kit all new, I can drive with peace of mind.

Even if today, the car seems to cool down properly on regular road, it has some difficulties to regulate on mountain roads or traffic jam. Especially when I'm stopped, the gauge reaches 100°C, and even with the fans ON, hardly cool down, until I bleep the throttle a little bit, at this moment the gauge moves down to 95°C. Like if the rpm moves the coolant faster in the radiator and the bloc. Looks to me as an abnormal behavior from the cooling system. The car should cool down without the help of rpm's increase.

Let me know if you guys have the same experience of it

Painted the Astra GTE seats that are going in the Austin Omega, they were grey and its all black inside. Fabric spray made it feel a bit "crispy" I will see how it is after drying overnight. I do have black leather to cover them but cant get them done in time for its maiden hot rod show trip.
