I am currently a member but I dont think I will be renewing. Enjoyed the Powys bash last year. Frank controls the forum with an 'iron hand'. To my taste, the forum is a little dull (its also the only forum I have had posts deleted from. I broke a forum rule about 'advertising' other clubs and the other post was deleted because it was "rubbish") but the forum isnt the whole club.

I'll echo Bobs comments  - I'm in a quandry also as to renew or not, as I've made some damn good friends with a certain usually tight fisted part of the country thats only about 30 miles from me :lol: . If it wasnt for these people I'd probably not renew :evil: Depends what you want out of the forum - its very good for technical advice as this one is - it just doesnt have the banter that this one does :wink:

Mmmm :?  :?

Obviously the 2 main reasons for joinng are;
1. To retain an insurance discount with Adrian Flux, as renewing with the Discovery Owners Club seems a bit silly seeing as I don't have one any one more

2. To stop a 'certain' green 90 (http://community.webshots.com/photo/170172201/1292203731047309372SXqRtm) owner from asking if I've joined yet :lol:

But, I'll bear comments about the overall nature of the club & forum in mind

Have you spoken to Greenlight about an insurance quote or mentioned 'Mud-Club' when speaking to Adrian Flux?

GreenLight quoted over £150 more than Flux for the Discovery

I wasn't sure on that point, but renewal isn't until October

Like everything else, the S111, 90/110 has it's good points and bad.  I've made a lot of good friends through it over the years. :D   That's why I'm still in.  I also have to be a bit discreet. :wink:

i joined a few months ago,not been off roading with any of them yet,but the people ive meet are ok,and sheffield pub met is only 3miles away for me

i would agree with the others regarding the way the forum is run
but think you will find a more relaxed approach at local club level

p.s i get a discount on my insurance from adrian flux by mentioning mud-club



cheers kevin

I was in it for a while and one of my mates is the local club rep for Worcstershire.

However I got a bit fed up of the politics on the forums as others and would rather post on here!

Having said that, the events and rallys they organise are good fun.
