Hello all.
I'm new here. I don't know much about pugs. And I said I would never buy one. However 4 weeks ago I bought a "stunning" (I've been in the motor trade 20 years selling cars) 1997 white 306. One tiny dent. No rust. No bad scratches.
It's an old man's car . 1.8 auto. I done the normal cambelt change.
I have sold mercedes/ jaguar/toyota/ fiat/alfa.
I'm looking forward to picking your brains.
I can't help you much,unless you need some help with an elvis question!
I was on mastermind in 1986.
I have driven lots of fast cars,including several Ferrari's. Thanks to some wealthy ex customers.
One of the greatest handling cars I have ever driven was in 1996 when I drove a brand new 306 xsi.
I do like a chinwag...... and I like some banter...
All the best
Elvis presley

As good as a car forum gets, only with added awesome.
A friendly bunch, who attend a wide variety of shows and hold gatherings of a general nature, the purpose of which being to consume alcohol and comfort food.
Very little to complain about!

Depends. If you have to ask yourself:
"is this unnecessarily offensive? "
Then it probably is, keep it to yourself. The same as any social situation. Presumably you don't need tuition in such matters? After all, you're the king.

Banter away! All we ask is you keep sexual comments to a minimum (doesn't do us good things for our google listings) and don't personally insult people

Are you also pug police pebbles mod?
No bad language/offense from me. But I do like some sarcasm/ pedantic wording...

It's a happy place. Banter is always banter. But being spiteful isn't. Play by those rules and there is no problem. I can't imagine you'd have any trouble
I'm a mod, but I'm not the fun police. No one here is.
Why all the questions regarding this? Have you had trouble on other forums?

No grief from me.I do like a leg pull... that's all. Do u think it's ok to put a pic of my car,that shows the reg number? Would you? I'm 48 years old pebbles...so I'm grown up enough to behave.
I also like to chat to proper people.
Thanks for your help

In the same vein, I'm 31, but I live by the adage of "you can't help growing old, but no-one can make me grow up!"
Welcome to the forum mate, another mod here, but as has already been said, as long as you keep it civil, banter is all good, bring it on!
