Why's this now the second thread you've made in a few months making a deal about CS being quiet? Genuinely curious, seems a bit weird.

For valid reason, unlike your smart arse attempt to make me look daft. I noticed he's posted in the defenders thread this morning and I found it hard to believe that he didn't take 20 seconds to check the thread he had posted the day before for new replies. In case he hadn't seen it rather than just ignored it I posted it again.

It's ok, because I said no offence
You know what I mean though, where's the legacy? The 1.8 SRi never really became a classic did it, not on the same league as the Clio Renaultsports...

Same could be said for B's. A GSi is far from a classic hot hatch.

With the gsi's though, you have the same group of people from 10 years ago, still crying if one is being broke for parts, because in 5 years it will be worth millions

So many people join for help
(I joined original site for help with a bulb, years later I've built a feature car) so much knowledge on here, and hardly anybody bothers to help eachother. So people like myself ask for help on other sites.

I would say it almost is... maybe not for being outstandingly fast or well handled, but in terms of rarity and followers it can be.
Maybe we need more interaction. ClioSport runs monthly photography competitions, has members writing articles as well as Clio media and spotted sections all which get people talking. Also, I know it can be slower, but having integrated YouTube videos is such a massive help imo. Linking is okay but tbh I find most of the time I just cba clicking on them.

The problem you have comparing the Clio vs Corsa world is that Renault have delivered interesting, class leading hot hatches with every new version for the best part of 20 years, their fan base reflects this.
This is in stark contrast to Corsa's which are have all been utter shit

I've been a member since 2009. Been to PVS/Trax/VBOA etc every year. Don't post as much now as I used to because it seems everybody's either having a dick measuring contest or some feminine bitchy grudge match. Plus I havent really made much progress to the car so haven't had any content to update my project thread with, and even if I did, it seems there's only a limited amount of people that actively look at/contribute to corsa project threads. It's odd how everyone that I've met at meets and shows have been sound, both virtually and in reality, whereas some of those who I've never seen at meets or shows are the ones that are posting utter bollocks on here. Says a lot when there's active members that turn up to shows with CS but don't post regularly on the site.

Yea I drove a VXR and they are good fun. There was a lease deal posted on pistonheads the other day where you can get one for £140 a month over 2 years. I'm not really into leading but that's a ridiculously good deal

Maybe the number of lines has diminished because you bought a new computer with a better resolution? Or you zoomed out?
There you go, problem solved

I remember him great name for a Corsa forum 
I also have memories of some years back when I was in school, some crappy white corsa with Kingdom Bumper and was featured in Revs Mag so a long time ago. He may have been asian and he claimed he owned the plate C18RSA (or similar) and used it for the REVs shoot and turned someone else owned it.
