Just to prove that I am paying attention I have noticed a change in the format of the forum. Is it a coincidence that we have a computer programmer in our midst who also owns a yellow Z06 and guess what....... we have the same car now appearing on the site? As if publicity in Vette News and Classic American wasn't enough.
Nigel has clearly been playing - confession time.

Not guilty!!

What site are talking about?

BTW I am a Business Intelligence Consultant not a Computer Programmer (A B.I.C. is an expensive C.P. for those that don't know!!)

I never used this before!! I always went in thru www.pistonheads.com

Nice picture!! Does look like mine, even has the no front number plate and no body side mouldings options.

It's a bit of an experiment really.

It's the same forum obviously, just a more direct route in. Partly to catch search engines, partly to provide a Corvette only experience for those that want that and ultimately it's another focused area in which to sell advertising.

There are still a few teething troubles which I need to sort.

It's similar in concept to www.porkers.co.uk

I'm so glad I got you guys thinking. I say well done to Petrol Ted for the improvements made. I suppose that I'm just bitter that he didn't use a silver convertible.

I like the design much more than the current layout, but would appreciate a single click method of getting to the gassing station and Pistonheads main pages too. I like being able to lurk on the other forums just in case there's something juicy going on !
