Key Torch

Perhaps he needs the torch to find his way back to the Mondeo section . LOL

 

I've noticed a few posts from mondeos and fiestas creeping into the 'view recent posts' section of the galaxy forum. Don't know if this is normal though.

 

Anyway, I thought the ford torch keys were only distributed through ford dealers.

Its been bought up a few time about the influx of other cars, it was decided to open sections up for other Ford vehicles, they dont intrude that much so personally Ipersonally dont see that they are a problem! but if you want just galaxy/sharan/alhambra site's there are a few out there but have nowhere the amount of members or are as active as this forum ;)

"but if you want just galaxy/sharan/alhambra site's there are a few"

 

;) Well ,this WAS just a shalaxy site when I became a member ;), before the very bold, loud and proud,stand alone,single,individual,well defined word GALAXY was shrunk in size to allow space to write,in my opinion, a diminished: ford GALAXY.

 

The point I'm not very good at making is that there is now less emphasis that this is,or ever was, a GALAXY FORUM..which might explain its success in the way that, say, a capri owners club might draw capri members that would'nt join a general ford owner club

 

Perhaps the word GALAXY and the three photo's of GALAXIES should be replaced

to imply this is becoming a 'general' ford site?

 

 

Yes I feel strongly about this,but thats the whole point of a forum I think?,and am I alone in wondering why some of our most helpfull contributers seem to have politely reduced their input?

I can appreciate your views, but a forum for such a small amount of vehicles

(ie. 1) wont thrive for long, people will get their old questions at first and then anyone developing problems in the future will just read old posts - therefore no new communication. The field has to be widened for the site to survive long term - which it has.

 

The reason i post here is that i actually get some straight answers (just like the OLD Haynes manuals, which have unfortunately lost precision recently), people such as yourself, Nimrod and others obviously have the knowledge and people like me need a way of getting to it.

 

Thanks for all your input, tons of people are after your info - id certainly take that as a compliment in itself.

I agree with your point of only one vehicle! take a look at .....

http://www.toyotaownersclub.com/forums/ it covers nearly the whole range of Toyota's and has a very active forum that has discounts, group buys and meets! maybe one day this forum could be as active? the one vehicle forum could also explain the lack of activity and in one case the death of the site! ;) one of the forums I use to visit has now become a porn site hosting site! I wouldn't mind but its pay to view ;)

there was a member on here who is in the process of setting up a shalaxy site! I keep clicking the link in my favourites list but its not up and running yet :P

if Dave's interested I can dig out the pure galaxy site links for him? a couple that I visit that are fairly active!

I agree, this IS a Galaxy forum and it has got along very nicely in the time I've been a member.

 

I am not really interested in mondeo wheels, fiesta gearsticks or focus servicing.

 

What are the other links? I have not found a Galaxy forum as active as this one
