Default Another Forum bagging Ford!!

Well it seems that Mitsubishi owners can't handle the fact that their FWD cars are better suited to the older generation ( no offence to our elderly citizens) and I was flamed for making a few small mitsubishi facts. Oh well, they are a single minded lot... Great website though!

Don't worry about them, they are acting like a bunch of kids. Acronyms are boring and not funny whatever side of the fence you are on. Funny thing is they are going on about how slow FF is going and they only have 291 registered users. :thebirds:

Sad... 4:

If someone came on here and stirred up trouble, the reaction would be the same - offensive, mindless, one-sided and stupid. The quality of replies in this thread alone speaks volumes.

So the cardigan brigade has a website.

How cute.

Love all the insults about Fords alleged unreliability.
Don't know how these guys could see broken down fords throught the oil smoke coming from their "ITSASH1TA" exhaust pipes. Doesn't EVERY magna do valve seats and oil rings between 100-120K?
Everyone I've seen (believe me there's alot) has had that problem.
Well I suppose their car is so superior, thats why they're selling so many of them.

Hmm, there have been a few lurkers here and they usually start rubbish to rev our forum users and then get banned. I see you as one of them, go on other forums and slag them off and get some kicks out of it and post up a link here to show everyone how clever you were.

I am a little confused here....

Ford Focus is FWD, Fiesta, Mondeo, Laser, Telstar, Meteor, Couger, Taurus are also FWD so maybe "elderly cardigan brigadeers" also buy Fords.
I notice the acute shotage of young motoring superheros in their new LTDs & Fairlane G8s down on the esplanade on saturday nights although there seems to be a few at the clubs.
The new XR5 and the ST170 must surely be marketed towards the bowls clubs & RSL set because no young sport vehicle enthusiest would buy a FWD would they?

I recently raced a Mitsubishi EVO IX (and others) on QLD Raceway in my RWD F6 Typhoon and although I was quicker than almost everything else there (mostly RWD from our stable) I could not even come close to catching the EVO. Maybe I was dazzled by the bright cardigan and hat.....

People who come on to AFF and bag Fords are almost immediately identified as dropkicks and treated with the distain that they deserve. Do you not think that other fora would do the same?

Hahah.

You gotta admit you were fishing and if you wern't you shouldnt have had your toes in the water. I think the 380's are a nice looking car. They seriously need a decent factory wheel option up to 18's or something but nice all the same.

I really don't know why they have a single thread just ford bagging ford, Or anyone for that matter, They should dedicate there time to finding ways to sell the cars and bag the men in charge of not doing that so far.

hold up here, when did i say i was gonna go bag people out and stir trouble, i went in for a look. thats another thing thats almost just as bad as trolls running around different forums and thats negative bafoons who just have to be negative about most things, theres heaps on all forums not just this one and by far thats one of my biggest pet hates but heck what can i do right, so before someone gets a bee in there bonnet and tries to come rain on my parade about this its about negativity in general and not over the current topic(trolling is stupid) mmmkay now play nice kids

They seem to think they have the edge in performance over us, maybe they should be invited to a FF drag day for some heads up.

Yeah I agree stock to stock they aren't much ATM (back in the late 90's their V6 would outrun a XR8 though). But some of their modded cars would supprise ya.

Admittedly, most of the guys on that forum are probably 12 years old by the sounds of it, but those from this forum that go and troll there are even worse. Those that do that just give us Ford enthusiasts a bad name. There's no need to sink to their level. When someone trolls here, they get slammed, anyone who trolls another forum deserves exactly the same treatment. Then coming on to here and posting as a way to try and boast about it is even more childish.
