I wondered why it didn't look like any other Passat - but then, you did say it was a "special edition".

I'm not exactly sure what 'Anonymizing Utilities' is - but it must be bad!!

I wouldn't have thought that archive.org was a banned site.

I wonder if I should impose some kind of web filter on my employees? We don't have any at the moment.

Your request was denied because of its content categorization: "Anonymizing Utilities".

I thought it was earlier.

This is the oldest forum page I found. http://web.archive.org/web/199911110...tractoruk.com/

Edit: Note how the posts include: "AtW - This time next year you will be a millionaire.", "Crash Boom Bang II" and "Aggrieved Dads Stage Bridge Protests"

This site really has changed.

I take back all the comments I make about the old board being full of high humour, quality comedy etc. in the light of the honourable gentleman's submission.

milan is right - this new board is rubbish compared to the old one. Burn the newbies!
