FCCUK vs Social media

It pains me to come on here & see such a fall in activity... I have fantastic memories here, but social media dictates the people using this forum is becoming less & less. 😰😰

I know lots of 'ahem' older users don't use Facebook etc, but it will reign superior soon enough, sad but true.

Could management possibly agree to discuss with anti social media peeps,that possibly getting a Facebook account could be beneficial on the basis of collectively FCCUK pulling together the very best social media group that would take onboard all of the info from her and live on for years to come...???

I can see me logging in here in 5 years & it being near inactive,

Just a thought, #movingwiththetimes

The club has a Facebook account Chrissy and has done so for over a year.

As Pete has said, the Club does have a Facebook account



Us older ones will still be here for you Chrissy

I'm members of 2 on FB, one with hoot all members, one with near 1000,
And I know it's not the latter .

/me also waves.

I thought this has all been discussed before.
There is nothing out there that is better than this forum.

One must be carefull what they wish for,as the old saying goes.

I use Facebook generally more than coming on here,but it's here where I know and trust.

I am happy to use both but think the forum is the better of the two

I recently deactivated my Facebook account because it was doing my head in. This forum is a bit like Vinyl records. Retro classic and easy on the ears.

A better place for quiet discussion and contemplation.

..great description!


In deference to the OP though it can be mighty quiet at times compared to a few years ago but, falling owner numbers apart, one can be assured that just about everybody on here is a lover of this classic car.

well, i've just done my membership for another year. Facebook may be fine,but this site offers far more than that .....that should secure me goodies from Sir Barnacle ......[ mats,key ring,stickers, rucksack please !!!!!

I don't use social media so I guess I'll be kicking around on here as long as it keeps going.

What Cooperman said

Send that man a tax disc holder....

I've so far managed to completely avoid FB and I don't intend to change anytime soon, so I'll be using the forum for as long as the forum is still alive

Nah, I've never have used facewipe or anything else of that nature. I'm with the fine as I am brigade......

Looks like between us we've scared them all off




We'll still be here guys.....

and I think all proper enthusiasts and Coupe'-isti' will be on here.......

I always come here ........ it's comforting for me

I can't even pronounce that

Just had a quick look on Facebook and there are so many Fiat coupe groups, which is the "proper" Fiat coupe group?

I think this is the only forum site for fiat coupe owner's which is run by enthusiasts for enthusiasts.

Good job, keep it up.

This one Freddie.

Fccuk forever

What is this Book of Faces...........?

I think the first line starts something like this...

I've just bought a coupe and I was told to come here!

Before i bought my first coupe I became a member and delved deep into the info and advice on here- but can see the advantage of also having a social media presence to make sharing simple posts and pictures much easier than uploading to the forum.

I think there is probably a demand for both linked to each other, forum for the fine detail and FB for social posts and pics. It may help improve and raise the profile of the car and those committed to keeping it on the road.

And all this from a fifty something 'dinosaur' who according to my kids doesnt get technology...

This place should definately be in the manual......

It is...

Welcome to the forum

Hi and welcome Grigio, my son-in-law has just been in your bit but said nothing about seeing a coupe!

That's a fair way to come, welcome to the Fossil club

Facebook is ok for photos and general chit chat. But if you want advice or looking for information to solve an issue it's here you come and nowhere else

I'm with you there- about closing down my FB account

It was doing my head in too



Oh no-hangon; I've never had an FB account...

But it's does my head in anyway!

What have they been plying you with in those snow-capped Orknies?
