Blast from the past - (another) what ever happened to? Lost members thread
G'day Folks,
I was wondering what ever happened to some folks who used to be here quite a bit - but now they have gone. It is fair enough - being here isn't obligatory! I'm sure even some people make dreadful mistakes and go off and buy a BMW or an Audi... ...but perhaps some of you know what happened to 1) babymog 2) yak If there's someone you used to notice about who isn't here any more post up their user names and perhaps others will know.

Dieseldog....from Kentucky, had a 240 d. Swore the 115 cars handled better than the 123 and were lighter. I sold him a used radiator once for a 240.

Individual circumstances as well as interests change. Unfortunatly sickness and the grim reaper also can be a factor.
Then someone may have a new lady and horizontal jogging is consuming or replacing the keyboard time. Have to agree the 114s seem at least more agile with the gas engines. Them being lighter than diesel 115s and 123s may be is the reason. Much the same way in my opinion the 240d with a manual box seems lighter handling than a 300d.
