Hi Pete
Good to have you aboard.
I've moved your post into it's own topic, just to keep things neat.
Insurance: I am with the local firn Abbey, and they are pretty competitive, but not sure if they do Opels. I am considering Tescos, as they are very cheap and may well do Opel.
The other option (apart from ringing round everyone) might be the Farmers Union - they insure anyone and keep it keen - and are very understanding about mods etc, and given the number of imported 4x4s our farmers drive, they are bound to recognise Opel.
We have not yet had any FOG exclusive events as yet - mainly because there is a lack of committed numbers. I am in the 4wdni club which runs monthly events - and no FOG members have as yet attended any of these. Apart from me!
If interest starts to warm up I would love to run a FOG Ireland event. No worries.
Check out this link for dates (subject to change):
