Not sure that the forum will appear in the mag, it is mentioned in the March issue news pages but that's about it. I'm toying with the idea of moving the PC actually...
It is unofficial, as it is funded and hosted by me...
Cheers, Neil

glad this is back - missed it when I could log on. Had to re-register though so I guess my post count is back to zero?
just as an aside, I've fell out with Bauer after they unexpectedly ended my subscription without telling me!
well done chaps

It's a brand new forum, nothing from the old one was allowed to be taken over, so that applies to all of us I'm afraid.
You fell out with Bauer? Join the club....
Welcome back mate!

Woohooo!!! We're back,thanks Neil. It's great to step away from the Classic-ish Ford Sierra,and read and chat about various Classics. I read somewhere that all the info about the new forum will be in the March issue. I assume it's been active since January.

Just so you know, from the horses mouth as it were, the old PC website and forum was closed at short notice by Bauer because another site, which ran on the same platform, was hacked into and all the data nicked. I lobbied long and hard (as did Neil) for a new site and forum on a secure server - but no dice. They just wanted a holding page - which is what you see. So thank you Neil from me - for keeping this party going, and sorry to all of you who have been inconvenienced.
I still see this site as being inextricably linked to the magazine - so please feel free to throw fruit at me - or flowers and keep the team up to speed with what you want.

Prove it then! This could take Jeremy Kyle in a new and slightly disturbing direction.
