How do I get hold of a trade card?
I've an oil change coming up and I got a price of €38.00 for genuine gm oil (not from my regualar opel dealer) Would I be able to get one as my dad knows the boss at the dealer I normaly go to.

Vauxhall only i think dont think OPEL do trade club
-
They do. I seen a sign for them last time I was there.

I recommend you join:
www.autobahnstormers.co.uk
at a cost of just £20, for which you get a trade card that gets you discounts at many Vx dealers, maybe their own discounts as well, plus it helps to get a Halfords Trade Card if you speak to their branch managers nicely!! :D :D ;)
Over the last year I have recouped my £20's many times over!! :y :y :y

Sorry, I completely forgot you are 'overseas'! :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[
According to the ABS rules you can use the TC in over 400 Vauxhall dealers, with no mention of restrictions on where those Vx dealers are. 8-) 8-) If you have Vx main dealers in ROI, I don't see why they wouldn't accept the ABS TC. ;)

Sounds like a polite word in someones shell like might sort it out :y
-
I have e-mailed the Secretary of the ABS to find out where the TC can be used! ;)
-
I really should send off my ABS form... :'(
;D
-
There wont be Vx dealers in ROI,they will be Opel dealers,could nip over the border but its quite a way from Dublin.
It is possible that ABS also have an arrangement with Opel :-/

Isn't Opel for left hand drive models, so ROI is Vx RHD territory? :-? :-?

I got my TC last year from here £12

Opels are RHD here. Must be just made as vauxhall with an opel badge stuck on ;)

Right, thanks, that does surprise me. Just seems a bit illogical. :D :D :D ;)
I have now had an answer back from ABS, and the chap I "spoke" to recommends you send an e-mail to Dave Waddington who apparently organises the ABS TC on:
secretary@autobahnstormers.org
and ask him if Opel in the ROI will accept their TC. ;) ;)
-
Made me think now...my father many years ago had an Opel ascona.
Normal left hand drive and was a standard sale from Vauxhall dealer.....wonder why they were selling Opel's and not badged as vauxhall.
-
Just to throw a curveball in the mix on badging, there is a corsa round here badged as a "Holden Barina" ?!??!??!??!? :-/

A list of participating dealers are at www.tradeclub.co.uk, I suspect they are only Vauxhall dealers though, not Opel.

Done a bit of research and there doesn't seem to be any link between vauxhall trade club and opel trade club. I'll have to increase my thinking power ::)

You might want to check with ABS about membership.
My recollection is that as an Omega driver it has to be a V6 version.
Not sure if the 2 litre engine is an eligible ABS car.
I'll check with Alex (who's on here sometimes)

Not relevant here, as Vx Tradeclub only England/Scotland/Wales (Not sure about NI), but ABS you only need 'an interest' in the 6cyl models.
My brother is an ABS member with a 1.6 Astra ;)

Cheers for clearing that up - sorted! :y
