Clearly a dedicated member of the community to be up at that hour helping members in need. He should be commended!!

I've missed something here, haven't I.
Bruce, what is this about "rear doors" for a Miata?
(are you having difficulty getting into the back seat? - it IS a bit of a squeeze, isn't it.)

Go back to sleep Rocky, It's all over! The prize is now on its way to Kelvin, a worthy winner!


-----------------------------------------------------------------

For Rocky and others who may not frequent the classified sections of this worthy place, suffice it to say that WTB ads would frequently draw replies along the lines of Kelvin's (do you capitalise bot's names?). MT.net has the same problem, and one unwise buyer seeking a part lost several hundred greenbacks as he followed the scammer's leads. I'm sure other forums have had similar experiences.

Moral of the take: stay awake!!

And just to spell it out, the obvious mistake makes it clear that a bot/scammer is at work when such an irresistible offer is made.

Thanks GM, I'm "woke" now.
Could I get a 'Roo Bar' and 'Bot Shu' for my MX5? Keep all those annoying Bots away. Kevin?

Another one:

Joined today, no posts. I have reported, and assume that others have same. I wonder if Dave is making any attempt to mark these as spam?

Got it too. There's a bit of competition betweeen them!

You too! That's what you get for making it a competition!!!

Still no posts, last active 8:51pm tonight. I wonder how many PMs he sent over that period? Profile says he is 51!

I'm gonna have so many rear doors I will build a stretch MX!
