Glad to see that we have not got the north korean approach to the outside world,other's could learn from this but i don't think they will or try to .
The MGOC also has its own forum, but you need to be a memeber to access it.

I'm not a member, so I've never seen it.
Just added to the 1st post the Maestro and Montego Forum.
The guys (and girls) over at zscentral.com are a friendly bunch.

The 75 & ZT Owner's Club forum is very active.
There's also the ADO16 forums for MG1100/1300 owners.
I'll have a word with the BCF admin team and put a reciprocal link in. We have links in the front page already to various other forums, although nowhere near comprehensive.

Thanks Martin - will amend the 1st post - but don't know the urls yet of those you mention!
There's also the 260 Forum.

75 & ZT OC (http://www.the75andztclub.co.uk/forum/index.php)
ADO16 Forums (http://www.ado16forums.info/cgi-bin/Blah/Blah.pl?)
BTW, there's also China Car Forums (http://www.chinacarforums.com/forum/) with an SAIC and NAC sub-section.

Have to say having a breeze round the other Forums - its interesting to see the MIX of colours.
I think www.mg-rover.org is absolute RUBBISH - far too dark. Looks lie a PORN site. :D
www.brit-cars.co.uk - colours are pleasing to the eye.
www.xpowerforums.com is good - but has far too many broken links and no sign of ever being fixed.
www.zscentral.com - has a nice mix of colours and good layout.
www.the75andztclub.co.uk - very good single marque site - don't like the Forum colours - but that's a minor gripe.
http://maestro.org.uk/forums - how it should be done - top site.

Jerry, how could you have not mentioned a great MG-R site that bears your very name in its masthead? I seem to recall you saying "Damn Fine" somewhere when refering to our great site. Its good alot of old faces on there, myself, Seamaster, Blueduck and Leader, not to mentioned the old sea-dog that is Dave Harrison.
www.macdroitwich.com is uncensored and unmoderated, try it, but be warned, anything goes. Some people cannot get on with it, but its worth mentioning all the same, especially when we have some surprisingly large turn-outs to events and organised European Trips.

Naw, I've never quite spat my dummy, although I've came close. You know the score, eh? I forgive and forget Jerry, you know me.
Now, any chance of updating the list?

Besides Jerry, I'm the saviour of that Forum which was hacked and lost 50,000+ posts in one afternoon.

I'll add it - what you need is Vbulletin and secondly a server where you have a data back-up that saves all your data. Alah www.rockenterprises.co.uk

There is the option to change to a lighter skin in User CP/Edit Options.
Looks loads better.

The default is 'orrible though. Don't approve of ORG's moderation tactics either - not posted on that site or visited it for 2 years. Dr Dave / Gas-axe is over moderating on another site too. However XPF has a faithful membership (some very good guys amongst them).
Happy to link to all sites though.

XPF - Stephen as well you know.
No infractions or reputation points enabled on this site - we don't want to create a hierachy here - so stop :stirthepot::stirthepot::stirthepot: Stevey....

Jerry, I haven't been on XPF for years, I had no idea.
The other week at Longbridge Revival, it was sad to see a XPF stand and not recognise anyone from there.

Didn't go this year - nothing to see new for me I'm afraid.
As for XPF it IS good to see communities getting together though irrespective of politics. It's not about personalities and Forums its about MGR-ARG-BL ect
But I do know what you mean.. :unworthy:

The MacDroitwich Clan was the biggest group there, but we spend nearly the whole time in the pub.
