I am a true ford lover and have owned 13 xr2's, 2 xr2i's, 1 xr4x4, 4 xr3i's, 2 xr3's, 2 fiesta rs 1800, 4 fiesta rs turbos, 8 escort rs turbos, everytime i stray from ford i always go back!!! This site got recomended to me by various friends, and alot of the stuff on here is very good and very helpful, but i recognise friendly banter as good as the next person as i have been on this planet a long time lol but this wasn't it was sarcasm to a new member. kind regards, jason.
Sadly its the "ford mentality", if you think up the sterotypical ford owner, you will quite quickly see why.
This is a ford site and the comments you will get, the Advise you dont ask for, the sarcy remarks. Im affraid thats part of owning a FORD and being in the ford scene.
The ford scene is very "cliclky"
Its part of the reason why as much as i love the cars i wil never buy another rst or cossie again.
Ive gone back to VW's now, and its unbelievable the difference in "banter" on the v dub forums compared to here. Much more chilled out and about the actual lifestyle, rather than about money, whos got the biggest/best/fastest.
So sadly your just gna have to put up with it, this forum can be a very helpful place for information, but sadly you have to accept the "banter" which comes with ford type people!
