The new Forum is available for a look see at last.
It is now a user friendly Forum again and will hopefully attract the amount of interest that the old one did.
I leave you to navigate your way there but it is worth a look.

Isn't it a bit early to be promoting it?? Both forums are still running at the moment (aren't they) and the new one isn't fully live yet. Don't want people going on there think they will find an active forum and be disappointed.

The definite positive is that it is a huge, huge improvement over the previous forum it will replace. It is so much easier to use and will be great for the Club. I just hope those in high places appreciate the hard work that Gary has put in to create a Phoenix from the ashes.

Just had a peek and it is much better.
There is a particularly good resource for owners of DB9s that wish to work on their cars by a member who has posted general advise and videos.
Before I found PH,about 3 years ago,I was a member of AMOC and found that the old AMOC website was ok.
However,I left,as I'm working full time I was not able to attend most events so didn't really get value from being a member,but that's not their fault.
When I did attend the odd event I found it ok and the members I met were friendly and helpful.

Hi Bob,hope you and yours are keeping well.
I am pleased to accept your gracious comment especially as it is from such an esteemed forum contributor.
I fear that I tend to use this forum as therapy for my alter ego and appreciate that most contributors humour me.

Ian V12, I'm just saying it is there for a look at. We need members to have a look and once it is fully functional, join in the fun.

I remember Steve on the old AMOC forum. He caused enough mayhem there and even wound me up until I clicked who it was. Git!

I'm glad to see the new AMOC forum is going from strength to strength. Lots of the old contributors are returning and the number of posts increasing daily.
It is a great place for technical information especially for pre Gaydon cars.

It has been a long struggle for Gary to get it going but he has done a fantastic job.

I went to AMOC headquarters because I had no response to my email requesting a user ID and password. They explained they don't currently have a website admin so those emails are not getting actioned as quickly as they could.

I suggest a phone call.

I've just messaged the AMOC webmaster asking how you can get in touch with him. I'll put the response up here.
