These are examples that work just as well as they ever have done but things can be bettered.
Take for example the use of discs on T4 & VT4, they are getting outmoded, get scratched and damaged, Toaf of course doesn't need discs.
Toaf will run on XP through to Win 10.
Toaf and of course VT4 doesn't need cumbersome interfaces either.

I have access to T4, VT4 & Toaf, Toaf is the one which is getting further development work, other than the addition of VT4, T4 is stagnant and we have seen that Toaf has seen hidden areas that T4 doesn't see.

Of course T4 is the preferred system but research and hard work from another direction can often surpass the original.
Like I say your 75 hasn't changed either so you don't need anything better than t4

I have upgraded Stereo, Bulbs, BCU, etc, OK not all need a T4 or Toaf but nevertheless they are upgrades just like a lot of us do here.
If you look at my profile you'll see I am a vintage "nut" but I do think that technology moves on, a FOC alternative to T4 has to be good especially to those out in the sticks.
The nearest T4 person in the club to me is Lovel, 200 miles away! I am lucky though having both set ups but Toaf is quicker to use and handier and does what it says on the tin!

Of course the T4 guys could just ask for donations then they would not have to pay the traders fees. Simples

Problem with that is it could be seen as the OC officially supporting TOAF.

You might be interested to know that VT4 is now working on the other members of the MGR family, 25/45/ZR/ZS/F/TF/Streetwise/MG Express/Rover Commerce, cant say about the CityRover as i cant find one

I think the Club Management, who in the main do a good job of running and monitoring the club have somehow let the word 'TOAF' blindfold them as to what has happened.

They should have been all over this ages ago, and if club rules are being ignored, and subscriptions being avoided, they should have acted immediately.

No action by club management has allowed 'TOAF' to become a 'Wildfire'.

Any 'System', that works, 'Toaf' or ''T4', that will prolong the life of our cars , has got to be good, no matter what you call it.

So come on Management, get your 'Boots' on.
