i'll post this here as i've already posted in newbies... and i aint really a newbie anymore... i have 80 odd posts and am a premium member and been registered since november last year, BUT i've hardly been on, so none u lot know me, i dont know wether thats because you dont want to, but im gonna tell you a little about myself and my car.
My name is Liam, or Lm (pronounced Lum with a northern accent) for short. You can find a picture of me here (http://www.britishmods.co.uk/liam/onthemoors.jpg)
I live in Tunbridge Wells, in Kent. And for those of you who know T-Wells and are wondering exactly where... Gordon Road, in High Brooms (just up the hill from the station) smileys/smiley2.gif
I work in Web Design & Internet Solutions, i also do my own web design work (check out www.ecoslion.com).
I drive a 1999(T) Silver VTR. Brought it in October last year, second car after a 1.0 Pug 106. I love the car, im a great lover of the saxos!! It can be seen Here (http://www.sax-p.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=14472&PN=1). So far all i have done is change Headlights & Tailights, Colour Coded front grille, sebring exhaust backbox, sprayed up interior components like heater surrounds and center panel. Also got a personal plate L14M VB.
I'm hoping to get it lowered next week, then get some 16s and wings west kit it. When it goes in for spraying i will have the bump strips colour coded and maybe flushed boot.
Let me know your thoughts, maybe tell me a little about yourselves? Im a scared lonely newbie, make me feel at home smileys/smiley17.gif
Feel free to add me to MSN: ecoslion@ecoslion.com
Anyone here from in or around Tunbridge Wells?

hello mate
Your sites pretty damn cool, do u get much business through it or do you

cheers, i make anything between £100-£700 a month so its not a living... just an extra money maker... i do work for a travel company in the IT dept. I look after the website, update it, fix it... surf the net smileys/smiley17.gif
What made you change from 106 to saxo?
i blew it up lol. its was 11/12 years old... 108,000miles and it had just had enough...
once that happened, i got on autotrader looking for a car with about 4k to spend... best think i could find for my money was the VTR for 3.5k
well happy with it... smileys/happy.gif

Nice point Damian...
Interesting site Liam... One thing I am particulary 'NOT impressed' with, is the way someone has completely ripped off the text/description from my Premium member page and used it... in the bulk, 'word for word' on the Britishmods web site, describing their 'Premium Membership benefits' smileys/smiley5.gif
Not very professional at all and ofcourse I will take a closer look when I get home from work... smileys/smiley13.gif

Saxperience Premium Membership...
Premium Membership infers that you get something in addition to standard membership... and you do! The Premium Member service is a chargeable service, with all monies being re-invested into the running and future development of Saxperience.
------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------
Premium Membership gives you the opportunity to become further involved in the Saxperience Community. The Premium Member services are offered at a modest fee of just £10 per year.
Recently, Saxperience has enjoyed a lage number of upgrades in both hardware and site design/functionality, which have thus far been sole-funded. Premium membership is your chance to give something back to the site, whilst also ensuring that the future is rosey!
What advantages will you see?
If you choose to become a Saxperience Premium Member, you will receive the following advantages: -
A Saxperience "Premium Member" membership card.
Two Saxperience stickers (Design C)
Your own sax-p email address (yourusername@sax-p.com) - POP3.
The ability to UPLOAD images to the Saxperience Server, for use in the sax-p forums.
The ability to UPLOAD Avatar images to the Saxperience Server, for use in the sax-p forums.
Access to Premium How-To Guides.
Access to Premium Videos.
Access to Premium Member forums.
The ability to register for Premium Member Prize Draws.
You will qualify for special discounts offered by select Saxperience Partners
------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------
After considering all of the advantages that are on offer, I hope you will agree that the fee for this service is quite reasonable, at just £10 per year.
No longer will you have to hunt for somebody to host an image of your latest modification, etc... you can simply upload the image yourself and insert it into the forum as you normally would. It really is that simple!
Saxperience Premium Membership will not appeal to everybody, so take this opportunity to become part of a focussed, elite group of Saxperience Members.
------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------

------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------
I hope you will appreciate the efforts that go into making Saxperience the most varied source of online Saxo media... The range of Premium Member benefits is continually growing! I do realise however that this rate of growth may not meet the expectations of all. I can only ask you to continue to support this community and trust that MANY developments are onwith behind the scenes.
Saxperience v4.0 - Bring it on!

not professional at all for someone to copy and paste...but im sure the issue will be resolved!
especially if British Mods wish to act professional about the matter they will change it
DevilDamo
6th May 2005, 14:19
ok people, lets leave it now.
liam has since removed the 'premium membership' section from the site. he was not aware that this had happened and if he did, do you think he would have put it up on their site? he knows the score and apologises to simo' and sax-p for the incident.

6th May 2005, 14:50
