You put so much effort into your replies. Even the short sharp shock ones have some kind of background information.

i dont see the discrimination? what are you getting at the whole idea of COTM is to pick the best car of a certain group i.e overseas, tuners isn't that then discriminating aagainst the people that dont live abroad etc?

so if a 30 year old puts his or her heart and sole into his or her creation only to be denied glory do to being 5 years to old is that fair and right? dont you think the older generation has something to offer as well or do you think the older generation shoulod be ignored as they have had their day and they should just be humoured to keep them quiet until they die?
im shocked .

not at all just we have more boundrys to adhear to which labels us off as a catorgory as apposed to older more experienced people with better funding better ncb and insurance policies etc (yes i know some or all of the previous may not apply in all cases) who have a broader spectrum of participants. for example you wont see much in the way of power or styling due to us bein stung where as if we were all 65 with budding careers and 45 ncb we could all afford and insure M3's

i'm older... But I have no ncb and no funds... what bracket should I go into?

Your heinous discrimination against allsorts of things continues to disgust me... first rat look, now everybody over the age of 25.

I think you should be ashamed of yourself.

euro = borbet a's with a big dish.

rat = matt black with dents.

afaik, thats how they came to the conclusion that its euro/rat.

i think a fair way of doing "car of the month" is to have car of the month between £500 and £2000 then £2000 - £3500 etc and then its on the value of the car so people have either spent money in the right places or not an e30's an e30 at the end of the day and price would be the fair way round rather than age etc. am 23 and have had some really nice e30 sports that at thte time some one who's 30 may have struggled to insure and run!

Yep thats not fair realy, im poor so can't afford to spend much on my car. Its lucky if i wash it. People with money shouldn't always be rewarded, punished would be better.
