Welcome aboard matey. Free Mig? No wonder you're happy. Like any car they can be a pain at times but well worth it when they're right.
   Main thing is the cambelt. Whole kit inc. tensioners MUST be done every 40k or 4 years. Plenty of oil/filter changes with Vx semi synthetic should see a Big 6 covering intergalactic miles & still pulling like a train. 8-)

Guy's hit the nail on the head! Also use the correct antifreeze mix (plain water eats away the head gasket if I remember correctly)

Obviously servicing with Vauxhall is darned expensive so I have a 'man who can' but this shouldn't be an Omega no-no? :-/

Hi Doc and welcome to OOF. :) I use an independent garage for all my servicing without any probs, although they do specialise in Vauxhall and BMW. As long as they're decent mechanics it shouldn't be a problem.

BTW, I take it you're an Arsenal fan from your forum name. I'm a Spurs fan for my sins! ::) ;)
