I think its a fine effort.  The folks even approached Vauxhall for sponsorship and, surprise surprise, they agreed to help out the maintenance of an old L reg Omega.

Right, things have been a bit quiet on the Frank front but that's set to change next weekend. He's been sitting at the Vauxhall Technical centre in Luton for the last few weeks waiting for them to have time to give him a once over...

So, they identified a couple of things...

The EML light was due to the crank sensor and wiring being goosed.. They have done this free of charge.

Brake pads low all round - replaced free of charge.

Clutch is nearing end of life - New one fitted free of charge.

And the alterations/paint job tickles my funny bone.....   ;)
