Title: ANNOUNCEMENT - GOLFGTI.CO.UK UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT.
Post by: topher on 01 April 2008, 09:39
(http://www.hothatchforums.com/forum/Themes/HotHatchForumscom/images/logo_head.gif)


Since the launch of this forum in 2003, its has grown to become a community beyond anything we envisaged. After long discussions and many many units of alcohol a deal has been struck and we're handing ownership over to a new prospector.

The management from http://www.peugeotcentral.co.uk/ will be taking over and merging forums with GolfGTI, the Ford Owners Club and the Vauxhall Owners Network to bring all the latest news and discussions in the 'hot-hatch' scene to one busy focal point.

This obviously means a big change, but we ask that forum users hang in there and give the new system a chance. Software changes are due to take place towards the end of the week, during which time the forum will be unavailable for several hours.

Regards,

GolfGTI.co.uk Admin team.


Edit.. yes its April 1st. You really think I'd join up with some rubbish french motors?

If it's been owned by a peugeot website does that mean more down time, or will certain boards just fall off occasionally?!  :laugh:
