Just a thought

It would probably be more difficult to manage, more difficult for users to find what they wanted, dilute the discussion and generally not be a positive move. In addition, as we're not officially affiliated with LR, Martin isn't permitted to use Land Rover or any of the model names in his domain naming etc.

2013 Range Rover Sport SDV6 HSE Stornoway Grey

Er, what's an "smth"?

There would be other problems as domain names like Land Rover UK forums, LandRoverNet, LandRoversRUs and Land Rovers in Action are already taken by 2 other forums already.

Must say, that for stuff about the most modern Land Rovers, Martin's 4 forums are the best. The LRUK Forums in particular are very snotty about any Land Rover that isn't out of warranty, which is one reason why I rarely go there these days. They are one of the best resources for techy help for older Landies though having a huge searchable database of old posts in their technical section and many experienced owners 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

There will be model-specific sections (with some subsections like: General, Technical, Maintenance&Modifications, My rrs\ffrr\d3\def) and some sections that will be common for all users, like: Land Rover News (new models, company news etc.), Events, Spotted, Off Roading, Marketplace, Site Announcements & Feedback, Off Topic.

All too complicated if you ask me.... I think one of the reasons why Martin's forums are so popular is the simple interface (to go with the simple membership )

Yeah, not sure why FFRR hasn't really taken off. Says something about the FFRR driver I reckon

Actually I have created this thread because of low activity on the ffrr forum.
I was going to talk about tuning of FFRR and found nobody there

I think I'll ask my questions here then

btw, FFRR is great. Driving it for a couple of months - i'm impressed as it made a good progress since 2005 model year. Gave my rrs to my wife

Now she's happy with scaring people around with it's free-flow exhaust
