Dear Bossman,
I am a member of both Bimmerforums (ie. .com and .co.uk). I have to be honest, there are somethings about this forum's user friendliness that are lacking vs the .com. First off, grouping thread by model and then under model having tech, for sale, meets, etc is much much better than grouping all models under a sub-head. You end up wasting a lot of time looking through other model for sale parts or meets or...I think you get the picture. If you want to leave it that way its your choice, but at least let the people filter by model using a drop down window on each category of threads...this allows the user to more effeciently use the site and will use it just as much if not more than the .com site.
just my two cents...
