Still, happy with 10th equal 8-)
He must have as it was recorded on the public vote.

ETA - Im sure i saw it written on a bus somewhere as well.
It never arrived - still one year to go! I did buy the 325ti in 2021 though, which is surely a worthy contender!

Doing FECPOTY properly takes a LOT of time.

Last time I collated all the contenders in advance, wrote daft summaries, scott did all the voting pish yada yada (on the old forum) it was literally hours and hours. And then there is all the time with the counsellor afterwards cos Rich or Rev complains about the dates.

I can assure you that just making it up is WAY easier. 8-)

You and Scott should consider a career in politics.

it would probably be easier if you just did a standard poll on the right date without adding any daft last minute rule changes. But I'm cool with this method too!

no idea what you're asking. OV9 doesn't have subscriptions or issues and it is not the same as ecoty

But, for FECPOTY

A nomination thread goes out in late December (that way you don't have embarrassing situations where you have cars from 2020 or any late purchases missed) then 1st jan or later, a poll of all the qualifying cars gets added.

Of course FECPOTY isn’t ECOTY. We ‘ave an eff, and a pee.

You bought that years ago. The GTS was end of last year.

My one can go in next years to make room - it was in November like Paul's GTS purchase was the previous year, so it's close enough...
