    Buggy Technical Register?

    Hi All, I'm not sure if this has been done before, but would it be a good idea to have a buggy owners technical register on here?

    Hi All - What Do You guys Think?

    Hi All, I was registered on here last year, but dropped out due to other commitments and a new direction in my car project. I was going to buy a Freestyle but decided that my soft spot for Smart cars and Mini's got the better of me!! So, against all things normal I've decided to merge the Smart...
