forums dead

[craigdmjv]

this forum is pretty dead is anyone up for getting some decals made up for our rear windows im debating it tbh and also if we see a cc in the car park get a leaflet and put it under the wiper or something come on guys

[Thar]

I think the decals/leaflets are a good way of advertising the site Craig, but I don't agree that the forum is dead, we've had a lot of new owners signing up recently.

yeh its not dead just really quiet tbh compared to others and its a shame and theres gunna be more its coming upto summer again lol

[DRAPER]

i believe it may be due to the stigma that mainly woman drive the CC and the fact not many woman that i know read yet even know what a forum is lol and most of us on here are men lol

not being sexist just pointing something out that ive noticed

[djvoodoo]

I second that djvoodoo, bought mine about 3 weeks ago got a bit of a ribbin off me m8's but wouldn't go back, and on the flip side the birds love it lol ! but craigs right this is a really quiet forum, i use to be a member of peugeot gti motorsportclub and that forum was a lot busyer. but it's not a bad forum just needs a few more ppl on.

[craigdmjv]

lets all get some stickers and put them in the window people can see it then seriously i see like 10 cc's a day going too and from work

Up to you members to keep on posting, because YOU are the forum. Keep the topics fresh and it will flourish

Remember, this is a bit of a niche forum as it is for *one make, one model* car rather than all the models made by a particular brand.
(although we do get posts from owners of other models of the 206)

Yep I've got all the women car jibes too, so much so that when i went to buy mine i told the guy it was for my daughters 18th birthday.....'He's reply "Understandable, most men wouldn't be seen dead in one of these" Wasn't sure whether to hit him or ask him if my bum looked big in this dress!

I third that lol. I too have had the 'hairdresser' mobile banter. But as soon as the weather is decent they all want to go cruising with the top down outside nightclubs lol

I actually see a lot of men driving 206cc's and my hubby loves crusing round in mine. He has a Megane cc but doesn't need much of an excuse to jump behind the wheel of mine, he says it's so much more fun to drive and can't believe how much power it has for such a small car (mines the 2.0).

Also, I'd just like to say that, on behalf of the female members, some of us women do actually know what a forum is and some of us even know where to find a dipstick - including the one under the bonnet!!

[Chushpie]

Ooo err, don't know what came over me then!!

Decals sound a good idea, be great to advertise the forum, I'd definitely have one!

[Thar]

Haha! Well said that woman!

Can I ask what you use to get that wonderful shine on your car Chushpie?
