Hello Simon,

Thanks for your quick & positive response, clearly not committee driven! And apologies for formal intro of the original mail.

I myself would much prefer to see 2 separate forums, on the basis that the 2 are likely to be put to different uses.

The forum for Romeos & F12s is likely to be predominately practical, used for live technical exchange, parts info & some personal contact. To be used by those that actually own, as well as being of interest to Alfisti in general.

The forum dedicated to buses, trucks etc. is likely to be for general historical interest - how many BB members actually drive their Mille or trolleybus to work! I can also foresee this being naturally expanded to include Alfa Romeo rail locos, marine engines etc etc, which currently do not have a home on the BB - yet which have attracted lively contributions & discussions in the past. So can I suggest an alternative title along the lines of "trucks, buses, marine & industrial". That implies heavyweights & also catches road rollers & tractors.

In addition, 2 separate forums could make it much easier to scroll through threads in that the basic heading will already be there in the forum title. I do find that scrolling for a topic can be most frustrating on many discussion groups due to inconsistent message titles.

Must stop now & check the oil level on the Mille before I take my kids to school (if only!).

I hope that you can consider this suggestion,

Regards,
