Hi all,

Just wanted to let you all know that @ExMX5owner has volunteered some of his time. With his time zone being 9 hours ahead of UK means he is perfectly positioned to get the crap posted while the rest of the team are sleeping. Took me a while to get his permissions sorted but he’s got to grips with the system really quickly and he’s passed his probation period!

It’s not his first rodeo doing this kind of thing so don’t think he’ll be a soft touch compare to me. Not that you lot cause too many problems or argue much as it’s pretty chill here all round.

I think what @GazHyde was saying in the intro post, is that being 9 hours ahead means I know what your going to post before you post it.. And that, No I will not be a soft touch, and there is nothing more fearsome than an Australian with a big ban stick..=)).

But Jokes aside, thank you all for the opportunity to help out from this side of the planet..I am humbled. :)

It's not the big stick that bothers me, it's the murder death kill spiders, snakes and crockergators that worry me :nailbiting:

Thanks Andy, Australia is not such a bad place to live, The aforementioned , are really only the publicized ones, and as a tourist pretty much all you need to worry about.. But then we have irukandji and box jellyfish..Killer Kangaroos, and Drop Bears... On top of motorists that cant see a convertible, because their SUV is the size of 20 tonne truck.. But it makes life fun...

Ι have no idea if kangaroos can kill or how a crocodile tastes, one thing I do know is that when I was down there I have attended THE MOST interesting car gatherings in my entire life. Probably because of the the proximity to Japan and the local manufacturing you guys have some of the best and rarest vehicles on your streets.
(And that makes you even weirder because instead of getting an R34 or an RX7 you picked a Z with 19 inch wheels)

* Our leader @GazHyde drives
WWD (Wrong Wheel Drive) Audi.

* We let MX5 owners on moderate…even if they are ‘ex’ can they really be trusted to not give you a quick cut and blow dry when you not expecting it…with the Japanese reliability they have too much time on their hands, got to watch them….


What next, non Z’s on BMW HQ Z run…🤫

Welcome @ExMX5owner to your new position on the forum:thumbsup:. I don't think you'll need your ban stick around here we all rub along pretty well.

The bots on the other hand....
