Just a suggestion, but in the profile information it might be worth changing the "How long have you had your VX?" heading to "When did you purchase your VX?". Would obviously stop that field getting outdated.. Yes I am that bored.

A few throw away ideas:- Date car was first registered Is you car a NA VX or VXT When did you purchase your car Build Number Colour Any Factory Fit Options Any Dealer Fit Options Any Modifications Have you experienced any ownership problems Do you use your car for road / track or both General thoughts about the car Would you recommend one to a friend Recommended insurance company

Would you recommend one to a friend?

Stupid question!

Rest of your suggestions were spot on though.

All you have to do is write "since" before the entry for the date you acquired it to solve that one. :)

How about a 5-line space for factory improvements you would wish for if there were to be a Series 2VX? Can't really count the VXT as Mk.2.

Thorney, Tried to make my changes. First time had an error message that not all fields were completed. Do you have to put something in every field ? ;) Also, when typing in the options I went past the end of the field and found that as I continued typing the first characters entered were deleted. :( Two other ideas to consider ;) How about drop down list on some fileds e.g. colours Could you list all the factory options and and just have boxes to tick for those you have. Yea I know I'm a lazy sod but it helps on the typing. Alos thanks for using some of my ideas. :D cheers
