If the website looks half old and half new, press Ctrl+F5 to refresh your cache.  The whole new website then loads (it did for me).

As usual, style is deemed to be more important than substance. One should have thought that getting some of the factual information correct on the site would be some sort of a priority.

Have spoken to Web updater and this now has been changed to advertise the Apcoa Connect service and not Ringo, I assume this is what was incorrect?
