Default NO autobot!

Just in case anyone was thinking of putting one on here, DON'T!

That's my suggestion .

I agree, the absence of Mr. Autobot and his Skoda rally posts is excellent

As stated above - there will be none of either.

The forum should be capable of being funded by sponsors and supporting members without needing google ads everywhere. I guess it's the difference between an enthusiast forum and one intended as a business.

i was there yesterday trying to find some info about scanners. youll be suprised to know that since everyone has left that there is NO google ads between the posts, and the search is back to the normal search like here. google ads are down the side and out of the way.
now if Mr Arrogance could have listen to us all the first time what WE the users want he may be a little better off than he is now.
