Default Car of the month

Hey guys, can we resurrect the 'Car of the Month' Thread, I am sure there are members cars that are worthy of the title. It has been a while since we had some stories and pictures.

Yep, we can resume the feature on the front end website if we get the stories and pictures from the members.

We had to stop it before because we were really struggling for content each month through lack of submissions. I always liked the feature myself, and it gave valuable content to the main website.

So if anyone has a submission to offer, me or Simondi would be happy to have it

Yes I agree lets get this going again.Most of us love our cars but we know they are not perfect (and never will be). I have considered putting one of my cars forward in the past but I realise they are not of show room quality! I think owners are worried about being ridiculed for one reason or an other.
It might even help if when showing your car if you highlight the faults "most" (some) members would love to give advice where to go (is that the right phrase)to solve our issues.

What do we have to do? Is it photos and a write up about the car? Or something different?

Who to Jim?

Please all, write up as a word document where you can copy and paste your pictures in, then email it to me [email protected] or Simondi.

Jim can you resend your entry to me, I’m not sure what happened before?

Cheers

Take a look at previous entries by clicking the link I posted earlier to get an idea of content, length of report and pictures used etc.
