Are other enthusiasts as enthusiastic as us?

As some know i spend a lot of time on here along with many others. I find it very inviting to come on here, to help and have a chat with people from many walks of life, with only a car in common.

The club has for me grown from a normal car forum , with regular get togethers, social evenings, special occasions shared and sadness as well.

So the question.

Is this place special, or do other car enthusiasts, clubs do similar things?

Same here I have just put the phone down after talking to Brian :lol:

As you say quite a club and this time three years ago we had about 25 members. Well it was only 7 hours old at the time :lol:

As you know I now have a ******** and never even bothered to look at a forum for the model. All I need is still here its as simple as that :lol:

I´ve been in quite a few clubs (still in 2 others) Never been in one like this though

. Always get a laugh and some good sound advice. What it´s all about I suppose.

This forum definitely has a different ambiance compared to others I'm involved with.

Most members seem to get along and there is none of the puerile troublemaking that seems to spoil some other fora in my view.

I have expiereince of other forums and clubs and to be honest this is by far the best. You meet great people (both at meets and online) have a laugh and get great advice (some to be taken and some not!!) on all areas, not just on cars.

I love it.
