Title: Spotted and Flyered
Post by: jonnypolish on 03 July 2010, 23:28

Was just wondering if we could get a section for this?
Seen quite a few dubs around and would be nice to know if they belonged to this forum!!
Put some cars to faces!

Look at the MK5 section for the success of such a thread / section  :lipsrsealed:

A few local forums i on have "spotted" sections in the forum and they are very popular!

but the important word is local lol

this is national forum and i guess why it wouldnt be as successful?

+ 1 i think that probably is the reason.

Might be an idea having a thread in "Chat VW Related" where if people have spotted some one, they can post their details in that?

Rather then having a section for it?

That was along the lines i was thinking Wherry!
A whole section would be overkill, But a small sub section would be ok?
but seeing as it is national i guess not :(

although i was working in bicester a while back and spotted an awesome vento vr parked around the back. i posted it up on ed38 and it turned out to be one of the main dudes lol.

i think we should have a sub section somewhere.

It just doesn't work. A combination of the fact that this forum covers the whole country plus VW sold quite a lot of GTI's means that there is no point in a spotted section. As rhyso mentioned, see this http://www.golfgtiforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=76069.0 for an example. 57 pages of people spotting cars that have nothing to do with users on here :grin:
