Try this bit of a read

Hcoc history

20th June 2001
Xorro (Zoe) starts UKHCS Forum at ezboard

21st June 2002
UKHCC established by Richard734, Squire et al as a tangible 'club' component of the UKHCS Forum. Attempts were made to get sponsorship from Hyundai UK however they were not keen on going beyond provision of merchandise. Pipercross stepped in to provide seed funding though and my then-local dealer St George Hyundai in Bristol provided parts/servicing discounts to members.

February(ish) 2004
First official recognition of UKHCS/UKHCC by Hyundai UK in their in-house magazine

16th August 2005

Work begins on ukhcf, by Macker Faz and ZS and a new site comes into play, slightly too late as many ex ukhcs members have gone to UKHCC.dupe is a member on both

June2010
Dupleman is a moderator on UKHCC as the main site he uses (and is still highest posting member to this day-even though banned)

July 2012
This forum is practically dead. Rik and Mick are disheartened. Cazza and Cervantes are moderating and barely keeping it going along with dodge. Rik and Mick are responsible for managing to keep things going. Faz has lost interest and Macker has gone

July 3rd 2012
Lidl sells out his share of UKHCC to autoguide and marks a continual spiral of downward. Dupe predicts bad times ahead but his concerns are dismissed.

August 2nd 2012
Dupe and Petrolhead Rob feel the urge to do a better job elsewhere where they are appreciated. Both agree UKHCC is not the place they can improve things . Both unhappy with buyout

August 10th 2012
Dupe throws an idea to Petrolhead Rob....

August 15th 2012
Dupe approaches Mick Doyle, Rik and Faz with an idea....

August 23rd 2012
Faz announces Dupe will come on board ukhcf.

Aug - Sept 2012
With ZS help, dupe introduces a raft of changes assisted by rob and coupe jay.

Aug- Sep 2012
Membership practically doubles and the forum returns to life, demonstrating many people are unhappy with UKHCC style since autoguide buy out
