You'll always be respected and appreciated for everything you've done. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CortinaDave 3 Posted July 16, 2023 Nice to see you reappear Bortaf! Used to love this forum and kenet back in the day, but my interest fizzled out when the forums did although I still look in now and again. My white 2.0S is still sitting in a lockup, where its been since I last used it in 2011. Needs a bit of tlc these days but don't we all😄 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Great car and nice to know you still have it. It is a shame the Forum has died off but I guess we can blame FacePlant for that..

I think this forum is a doddle to use, like FB you can see all the recent posts......or you can search different topics like "cars for Sale" or "Events".....not sure if you can do this on FB. I've looked at FB but much prefer this forum. Thanks to all who make it what it is. 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GhiaMk4/5 207 Posted July 22, 2023 I'm with what John Mack said, Facebook does my head in, this format is straightforward and logical, we never want to loose this site, it's far superior to anything else out there and is still the source of great help and great people, whoever the people are that make it happen, well done, you are stars. 3 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
