Hey, so i'm new to this forum and know that I need 100 replies and 30 days on the site or something, but in the parts section someone is breaking a nile blue phase 3 and I have been looking for parts for a while.
Does this mean I know have to play the fate game and hope the parts are still there when I become no threat and am known or is there another way to get stuff?
Cheers

Yes it does, don't panic though there's always cars being broken for parts on here.

Sad, but I guess there is a good reason for it.

Not often Nile Ph3's get broken though... You'll just have to spam up to 100 posts in the next couple of weeks...

Like you do with everything you ever comment Tom?
100 posts isn't that difficult to reach mate and the 30 days rule isn't active currently

As long as you keep your posts constructive and sensible, you'll have no problems. Get involved in as many threads as you can, doesnt take long to strike up a conversation with someone, then the posts rack up nice and quickly.

I'm in the same boat as you. I've had to get quite a few bits for my car and I'm having to buy off eBay or new while I try to get to 100 posts.

You could beg a member to pass on your contact details to them? :p but I guess that defeats the idea of having the post limit to access those pages.

If you're based in brighton, you're not really THAT far from me! Not too sure if that's a good thing or not, mind.

If my memory serves me correctly, MisterGTR is from Scotland but other than that i can't think of any Scottish members. Jake has just moved up there but rarely comes on here these days!

There's two 306's near me which are exactly the same colour and trim by the looks of things but are annoying a lot cleaner than mine! It's funny I meet one of them in the mornings going to work and we overtook my pal who thought he was half asleep and seeing double!

Yeh man, near enough. Haywards heath to be precise. If there are any shows or meets maybe head up together. Youre not coming to trax on sunday are you?
just finished pulling off my plenum to re paint. Fingers crossed I can finish and re build asap.

Nah, im not doing Trax im afraid, probably wont be hitting any other shows this year. Was hoping to make the PFC expo, but its not looking promising at the moment. Gonna be doing my utmost to make it to the Christmas meet this year though, so get your name down for that! Will be a fantastic weekend to get to know everyone.

Thanks for the invite but I think that phase of my life is over for a few years. I have a 6 month old daughter now so she must come first. Single days are fine. Maybe ill try just for a day but it would be a lot of driving for only a few hours.
