If you spent less time on here slagging off the best Nation on earth, or out playing Golf you'd probably have more than a 2" by 5" patch of steelwork cut out on your shoddy old Escort

What's the problem? All these people that don't have Fords anymore USED to have them. Doesn't make their advice or input any less respected in my opinion.

I don't think I've seen many Ford related questions that couldn't be answered on here I don't see how still having one makes a great deal of difference.

Look at Gracie for instance [try it, 5 seconds without laughing and I'll give you a tenner ] he built a cossie powered BMW with his own finely manicured hands. Aside from all the knowledge he had before, think of all he's gained now by taking the blinkers off And how much he can share

Ok, so he now has a 5 series Beemer to ferry him to the public toilets for illicit meetings but that doesn't make him any less of a man.

I love the fact people can ask a question on ANY car or ANY subject here and normally get an expert answer

I dont think PF is as good as it was too many people now use this site for small talk & not so much technical stuff as in the old days. Because of this I dont use this site much anymore cos their are other sites more suited to what I require. However for Ł20 a year this site is really good value & I will continue to support it. I beleive the membership fee should be compulsary after say 3 months, but thats just my opinion.

Totally agree

Ive lost count of the number of times ive got sound advice about non Ford related queries - be it IT, BMW, Toyota, fitness and general mechanics.

I think the diversity of the user-base on here adds to PF's success .

Ive met some top people on here, got sound advice from alot of people, bought and sold alot of parts.

Exactly right. Prior to owning the Evo and Lexus, I had only ever owned Fords and still have a passion for them, they are part of my heritage. I grew up on Fast Ford, Performance Ford etc and have a lot of respect for cossies but I dont have the time/money to run around in a 20 year old car when I need to do large km's each year.

Cossies are formiddable machines.

I have met many great people on here who have helped me with non Ford stuff. I would rather learn about lots of different cars than just one marque and this is a great place for it.

the only thing that would even make me think about not renweing my gold membership is the poor site performance/reliability issues it seems to have so regularly compared to elsewhere, which appears to have got slightly better recently

I drive a fucking VAUXHALL VECTRA FFS!!!!

And it's a shite one at that

But PF is a regular read for me, I just like it.

Broad type of people who post, broad range of topics, lots of different car marques, BUT a general respect for fast fords especially cossies

Last cossie I owned personally was a 330bhp saf in 2005.

I adore cossies and will own another one day. I even just enjoy reading about them. I've owned alot of affordable sports cars bar mitsu evo's but for me cossies have something extra, rust maybe , but i love their rawness.

Any fuck you all, most of you won't even read my post cos i'm not in the 'clique' lol so fuck off , but I still love PF

PS ginge i've got fat too from reading PF
