Hello to everyone. My name is Steve Gibbens


Although I've got long term experience, it is always interesting to hear news on the "market", so I will be happy to browse around the forum from now on.

Hope to write/see you soon.

Thanks guys. I didn't expect such a warm greeting. I am new here, so I didn't even have the time to browse through the site yet, but up to now I find a lot of great topics I will have to read through. My family-time just got thinner I guess.

We only do it to boost our post count!

No, not really, welcome aboard.

I've recently become self employed and often find my self working as a mobile mechanic... out of interest what does a 'proper' mechanic charge, per hour?

Hand brakes not needed Mate, you just push the throttle further, instead...

To be honest that figure isn't quite accurate, it was more like 21 and a half M.P.G.
Part of the reason I've retired the Omega and started using the Vectra again :'(
