Post by: rich83 on September 24, 2014, 10:25:52 am: Would anyone actually use a specific mk6 forum?

Post by: Nodz on September 24, 2014, 11:38:16 am: We've had/did have one for ages and no one used it did they?

I think everyone one just carried on using the main forum

It is a good idea if it got used and if we done that then we would more than likely add a mk7 one later on. Trouble is we run the risk of trolling between mk's and/or people staying in their specific mk.

There's a fair ratio of later cars and other VAG family cars here now, I say we have a separate member's rides boards for mk6, mk7 and other VAG cars (Audi, Seat, Skoda, Porscho, Lambo, Ducatti...) :happy2:

We all know the MK6 was only a tweak of the Mk5 platform but there are one or two things different so yeh would be nice to have in my opinion. :smiley:

Post by: PND on September 26, 2014, 08:11:20 pm: I think a mk6 section would be useful for things that are definitely mk6-specific and different to their equivalent on the mk5, e.g. mainly things like interior trim, exterior parts removal/installation. Obviously a lot of mk6 things are already happily covered in the 'mk5' areas.

The updated forum is looking really good so congratulations and thanks again to those involved. :congrats:

It just needs renaming now to 'Mk6GolfR.co.uk'. :wink:
