Corsa-B.uk - Vauxhall, Opel and Holden Corsa B Owners Club

ah well atleast this thread has a few posts!

i think Adams online now

haha, yeah its had a few posts BUT from 3 members and 10 have been online. Its crazy!

ah well what can you do,

thats what im talking about though, the admin are online and they havent even commented on this thread.

i no wat u all mean i jined a while ago posted 2 msg n only 1 reply frm a guy tryin 2 sell me stuff. o well the futures bright the futures red top lol.

Hey Guys!

Well iv read through all your suggestions and i agree that we can do something to push it.

Problem is at the moment, we dont have anywhere near the same member base as say corsasport or migweb. We are always open to ideas...and a PM to either Paul, Adam or myself with suggestions would be welcomed!

We just need to have people who visit often and post often. I am on here every morn and evening, and i agree that nothing much goes on...but then we dont have many people who long on regularly and get involved in the forums!

I have posts in the regional and general areas that are unanswered by many...so its not just you guys that notice it. But if the people who spend time on here keep doing so, and push the site in their local areas, then we may start seeing some traffic.

Totally right Chris mate, i didnt start this thread as a dig at the forum (and im glad people havent seen it like that). This was the first forum i joined so my loyalty is with corsa-b and i would like to help make it buzz with chat/advice/banter again.

Just started this thread to try and kick start that, seemed people had realised that it has gone abit slow but nothing was mentioned, so i thought i would throw it out there,

I think as a forum our target should be PVS, get a nice close nit bunch of members and go to PVS and maybe even get a stand, this will help get members and let people know about corsa-b forum.

I was looking through the members list thingy yesterday and there is faaaaaaaaaaaaaaar to many members who have joined but not even placed a post. This is the thing we need to target (i feel) and try to get every 'active' member (by that i mean ones who have joined in the last 3months) on here and chatting away, even if its just a ' Hello my name is ......... i drive a ............ my plans for the car are ...........'

Well thats my views anyway,

Indeed. Well we have got a stand for PVS, and Paul is ordering tickets at the end of the month. Theres a group of us that go together in convoy and camp together. Adam, Paul, Matt and Myself will all be making up this NW convoy to PVS.

So speak to Paul about getting a ticket and getting on the stand for teh show!

Am trying to work with Lookers Vauxhall in my area to try and get some sponsorship and so get flags etc for us! But is taking some time as am also trying to concentrate on getting my car done for the show.

Thanks for your input...will be keeping tabs on all suggestions people post up!

its just member traffic, it may take time, but wil get better.

corsasport and mig have been goin for years, thats why they are what they are.

i really wanted to go to PVS this year but its my best mates 21st that weekend and he wants to go Dublin, gutted

On a slightly different note, im having serious problems getting my middle section off, any good suggestions on how to get it off??

blow torch, lots and lots of heat. as for pvs, bring your mate along. sat night is one big pissup

hmmmmm, i havent got a blow torch.

Problem is i had the rear of my car on little ramps y'day to do the backbox (as thats what im changing) but the front of my car is to low to drive up the little ramps.

Its proper doing my nut

Yep, i have that problem! I cant get the jack under unless someone pushes up on the door frame. Oh the joys of lowered cars!
