Hello all, newbie here.

Bought an '08 S3 (or should that be S111?) two weeks ago and it's fantastic. Much more fun than the boring Focus TDCI I used to drive. I'll upload some pics later.

I have an air filter question, please see this thread here - http://www.hyundaicoupeownersclub.co.uk ... 88#p106288

:text-thankyouyellow:

Dave in Manchester.

Thanks for that.

As soon as I finished creating this thread, I read the notes about asking your first question and thought "Oh dear....."

What an idiot.......

Anyway, cheers.

Yeah, it's not in bad nick. Just a few minor scuffs and dings (which are getting sorted next week.)

I'd been after a Hyundai Coupe for a few years because they just look so good. I'm well pleased with the one I've ended up with. Was going to go for the 2.7 V6 but the Road Fund put me off a bit.

And it certainly beats driving my old Focus 1.8 TDCI.......

Aaaaargh !!!!

Not sure what's just happened but I've just tried updating my profile (at work on their time using their PC) and I got a big red message saying that my IP address has ben blocked because it's well known for spam......?

We're a Chemical company based in Irlam not a dodgy Viagra vendor in Nairobi.......

But I can still post comments.

For the record, I'm not a spammer, and I mean you all no harm.

And I think I'll leave the profile update 'til I get home.

Dave.

We don't "block" any IP addresses in the way mentioned above.

However we do subscribe to a few IP-RBL DNS Blacklist's which may react in the way mentioned (the idea being that if you can't set up an account you can't spam us lol)

So if it is one of the black lists that you are listed in, it would seem someone from your company may have done some spamming in the past?

Either way if you PM me your IP address I can find out which black list you are on and maybe even find out if I can get you removed...
