“I’m a member of many clubs, some of which are very expensive and in my opinion this one has the best website by miles. What differentiates it is the forum and particularly the gallery, which gives us a chance to catalogue the history of individual cars by chassis number. It is evolving into a really important historical resource. Thanks to all involved for all the hard work and making such a useful technical and photographic archive for owners.
In my opinion the club should not be shy to sing its praises to prospective members (and non-forum users) to boost membership and engagement!” Guy Laughlan – Classic Oils
“I would like to second Guy's statement. I am also a member of other clubs, and this is the most dynamic website I have experienced with such a rich and high information content. Very well done to all concerned, and also a huge thank you from me.” Robin Wills
“I can say without a doubt I would be totally lost without the support of this club & forum. I owe a lot of beer” Oliver Wright
