It was good while it lasted & I feel sad to say it - but I have decided to withdraw my sponsorship of Mini2 thus I will no longer be around to give my advice.

Reason - I have been banished to my own little forum they have given me way down in the depths of Mini2. I am no longer permited to post about say a new ipod adaptor for the R56 in the R56 interior section or a new style rear lamp for a clubman in the clubman section. For me a stupid rule as people browsing the site will totally miss my announcements. I did a poll which showed exactly what I thought but it seems that someone is following new rules to the letter & sees fit to move my posts about.
I am one of the longest standing sponsors of this site & have paid a lot of money to keep it going & yes I have received good business from it but its just not acceptable for me the way things are being done. (Paul - come back at least you would listen to sponsors thoughts & would even float ideas past us before making changes.)
Some of the mods are putting the blame on certain 'tuners' for bickering - if so then shame on them & punish them but why everyone has to suffer I dont know.
I will see you around folks on other forums (have already contacted newminiscotland about becoming a sponsor) & I will ask my web developer about building a forum into my site
