Hi All,

Yes brilliant, thanks for all who made it possible...

It would have been a great shame to loose all that valuable information...

Cheers

Same here - such a large body of information would have been lost, and also the community built around it. Only thing I notice is the search doesn't seem to be working (yet) hopefully that will get sorted out too, otherwise I can see lots of re-asking of already answered questions :)

Regards,
Simon

:D Well Done and thanks to the moderators. I know this is a big forum - but it is the most useful resource for French cars, particularly for Citroen, that I know. My blood drained when I saw that it had been taking 'off air' by GSF, and only now is my state of mind, and general feeling of well being and security beginning to return to normal.
They said it couldn't be done, so we didn't bother trying!

:D :D I agree with all the previous comments - just about freaked out when I saw the original one had disappeared with all the historical knowledge in it. Now I'm a happy camper especially with another 16V in the stable to fix....
cheers,

I bow to those who bent over backwards to save the forum. Im sure that otherwise the s/hand car market would have been flooded with French motors.....Also if you have had to change your name joining here do tell us who you were/are??? As I have seen some familiar names - Alex. P.S I broke my chain wrench this afternoon trying to remove rear spheres :roll: :oops:

I don't think anybody really cares. Haven't asked, haven't been told.

This way, we've got it all to ourselves. Don't look a gift horse in the mouth as they say. :wink: :wink:

Fantastic work. Thankyou all so much. :D

You dont realise how much something is missed when it suddenly dissapears! To lose so much valuable information would have been criminal.

This site is literally a lifesaver to so many people.

Once again thanks guys. You have made my day.
