I’m afraid I didn’t feel in tune with what seems to be a widespread pro Brexit view strongly expressed by many on here. That actually put me off owning a 75. The final straw came a while ago when I was verbally abused in a post by a well known Brexit supporter. I complained to the moderators about the choice use of language without any response.

I cannot help but feel this post is another back door entry into a discussion on how much you disagree with Brexit (which for the record, I am too, at least in the form it was presented when you started getting involved in political discussions on the forum and the subsequent attempts to make a deal, but since it was democratically chosen, I cannot deny the choice of the majority). If you really were not upset, you would not have mentioned the apparent abuse and especially Brexit at all. No one deserves to be verbally abused, but if you are part of a forum that you cannot condone or support, then you leave the forum.

You sell a good car because you have become bored of it or have a better one(s) to use, then relish the opportunity to use the decision as ammunition against those who disagreed with your stance in political discussions. People here do that with real ammunition!
