Can I just say how pleased I am at the general niceness of everyone on this forum, it really is a joy to use!

Time and time again I've atempted to have meaningful communication with people on other forums and I just come across the most obnoxious, sarcastic bunch of, well frankly people I wouldn't piss on if they were on fire.

A recent enquiry on a window tinting forum went something like this:

Me: new tinter in the Essex area bla bla bla ya know tips and stuff for starting out ( slightly more in depth than that but ya know). . . .

Reply: Why don't you change trades???

So anyway, just wanted to say that we have a very special forum and community here and I hope it continues!!


Back into retirement, for now at least . . . Broomy will come out to play next year smile

Thanks for your comments Nicholas smile

I think the difference is here, is that a lot of us have met each other and know each other and we've all become friends, whether it's cyberspace friends or real friends, it all helps make this forum a nice place to be smile

We all share the love for the same make and model car, in it's various forms and most people accept other people for whatever or whoever they are and get along well, all because we share the love of a Fiat Coupe smile

Even people like Brewster, who hasn't owned a Coupe for ages, stays on here, not only to abuse us, but because he loves us all too laugh

I thought Brewster stayed on here because his court order only lets him view 3 websites:

FCCUK
Handbag.com
hairdressingworld.com

Truffle is a cloud9 though. He needs to venture outside of Bristol otherwise that coop of his is wasted being a hack.

He'd be better off with Brewsters 106D laugh

Let's be honest, who wouldn't be better off with my 106? A dream on your drive for £1-9-5.

I think everyone is so nice because life as a coupe owner is tough enough without any extra aggro when you need help to fix it!
Those whose cars are working know what it feels like when their car is broken.
