When we picked up the Elite Estate, it did say it was done 7k ago, but for peace of mind, knowing its done right (and the timing) also knowing tensioners are changed as well, it was replaced.

Personally, if we gained another Omega to the tunnie fleet, its cambelt would be changed, no matter what the history says

But I (very) vaguely remember that the person who did it was nursing a hell of a bad head due to over endulgance the night before....   ....would you trust someone in that state?

(or was that a different car, I can't keep up )

Might have been mine

Actually... Nope, CB was done on the Saturday... Just the LPG connections and wiring that was done with a fuzzy head

Another theme here, think you had a hangover too on the 3.0 

Still suspect a hung over admin, would be a far better choice that a Vx monkey
