Me neither, it's a mod that Robbie made, I think, and I have no documentation regarding it and I can't even see who has it and who hasn't at the moment. However I'm fairly sure I'd not add myself to it anyway, it's effectively a sat-nav shopping list of nice modded cars for the price of a membership.

It is a fair comment and lets face it our kind of cars don't exactly need much more advertising  8)

I never had access to the map, no idea what depth of detail it gave - usually on these things you're forced to enter your entire postcode, but so long as the first 3 were all thats' needed it's not really a problem.

Worries me that people that I dont even know stop me in the street and ask me why my car never moves - I hate to think it would get more attention than that!

I think all you did was put a pin in the map with your user name and car type around where you lived but I can't really remember

I remember when I had the map, it was in my profile page. And yes, all you did was look at a satellite image and put a pin on it. You can zoom right in, but if you just put the pin in the town centre of whatever town/city you live in I dont see it as being a security issue. Would be great to have the map back though

I've found the mod but it's not compatible with our current forum software version, I'll need to figure out a work around, not going to happen this month!
