know what you mean. I don't get the urge to post that I have just farted . or a picture ofwhat I had for dinner.But it is better than ebay for buying and selling. most people use it now.
managed to source a brand new unused PFF7 from there amongst other things.

I can understand people's use of Facebook for keeping in touch with friends and stuff but thought these kind of forums would still be popular, seems like my local Scooby club has gone the same way,no activity on the forum itself everything on Facebook :bang:

It is a shame that the Forum is so quiet now. Facebook (designed for people who have forgotten how to live ) really isn't my bag either- back in my day we had 'That's Life' to watch if we wanted to see a dog say 'sausages' or a photo of a parsnip shaped like a penis :D . The spam on here doesn't help but it's not the be all and end all. The fact that they only made 500 cars in the first place probably plays some part as 13 years later I am guessing there are somewhat less than 500 still on the road. Won't be long until the '1' starts appearing on the Car SOS style programmes now :D

Could probably have done with car sos for mine. Put it into slowboy for new brakes and a service and it’s ended up with pads and discs, a service, head gaskets a clutch and a rear hub! Can’t wait to get it back. It best drive like a new car now.
