Looks like they're in the process of moving to a new forum engine which from my quick glance at isn't that easy to navigate and has caused a bit of a rift with some users.

I have never been a heavy user there, but dipped in earlier and it was chaos.
Most threads closed down and no redirection to the new forums that I could find. I did find it though and there were anout 5 threads in total, like a brand new forum. Bit weird really.

Looks gack, to be fair. Complete clusterfk. Here's hoping they keep the original forum as it's an excellent resource.

Yeah the new one's a bit spacky, but I'll probably get used to it. If they'd just shut down the old one straight off and exported the database, it would make life a lot easier when browsing it, though!

I used their forum about twice in the last year. People on PH seem to be more friendly and helpful.

Well its up and running fully now, you can access it via www.mx5oc.co.uk homepage however its pretty dead at the moment. I dont bother with it anymore as i find it too irritating to use, i assume others must feel the same.
