1. make forum thats better than boards
2. ???
3. profit

RoundyMooney

I do be thinking that step one is the hardest to overcome.

colm_mcm

why bother? I presume most users on Boards use more than one forum, and wouldn't log into a similar, smaller forum to discuss the same topics with fewer people.

Boards started off small. I am trying to use my experience in the motor trade to help people like you.

I object to the manner in which you are pushing this site (spamming threads and PMs)
Site ban requested!

I am sure at 1 post it was Ireland's biggest quake board...

I reckon if someone who is a Boards user needs to know something about motors, they just drift over here, get their answer, without signing up to a new site. You're more likely to get an answer on a big, established site, than on a small one.
Maybe I just don't see what you want to do, but the site seems to offer nothing new. there are quite a few people in the motor trade on Boards, and there are also many specialised forums out there for specific brands.
If you're just advertising on other forums, how do new users find you?

Centre Of Motors, I'm in the auto trade since i was 15 as a apprentice panel beater, i'm not saying that i know it all about cars but i can give people a pretty good idea. I've also signed up to Midnightclub and Driver, and none of them offering anything diffrent.


I'm a Boardsie, for now and forever, also you wouldnt pimp another site on MC or Driver.

How about an "Should I buy an Alfa and driving without my L Plates and unaccompanied on a motorway ?"... thats 1000 posts straight off....

So to be clear...


I am an learner driver (got my 1st license last week) and I plan to drive in the overtaking lane of the Motorway while unaccompanied, with no L plates and with the flog lights on, would an Alfa 156 on NI plates (don't want to pay vrt) be a good car for this ?

anyone have an issue with VRT?

I do, I don't pay it. It's illigel and a rip-off and road tax is a rip-off here considering the state of the roads.

''Recomend me a car''

I didn't know there were any benefits from owning a Skoda except basic A to B motoring. They have to be one of the most bland uninspiring car manufacturers on the market. I believe they're making a better effort with cakes these days.:)

I would agree with you.I think boards is the best forum website around.No one can beat it.

It might, but a 3 series might be better as indicating is optional.

I hear the Octavia has quite a big boot, and the 100 bhp models are actually 115 bhp, just they don't tell you. and they do 98mpg even when you drive them hard. Apparently.

Should I put 20" chrome rims on my 1L Corsa or would 19s be more suitable for Irish roads (when I'm drunk in the overtaking lane over the speed limit unaccompanied on L plates with my foglights on and stereo pumping and baseball cap at whatever degree)?

k thanx
