Default ALL UK CARS ARE AP1

Garrrr

Much in the same way not having your location in your profile jars with some members, the constant referal to AP2's on the UK board is beginning to do my swede in.

Can we sticky the difference or have the following popup it as a popup when noobs log in

AP2's dont exist on this side of the pond noob, do some research, yer fecklees fecking fecker

and breathe

oh and obligitory added

People who use apostrophes when referring to AP2s do my head in

FWIW, I agree with the sentiment. "MYXX" is probably the best and clearest way to refer to the various models sold here in the UK.

I would add it to the "Read this first" sticky, but as no-one seemingly ever does read it first, there seems little point.

Perhaps one for the FAQ?

Then maybe someone should write a 'Non-Technical FAQ v1.0' and make this Q1.

The Technical FAQ is awesome, hats off to BassOctpuss for doing it, but a simple list of 10 most often asked questions or silly mistakes could go a long way to helping new owners feel at home.

Not everyone would want to read a 3 page detailed technical FAQ, but I think most new members would read a 'Ten things you need to know about the Honda S2000 before you start posting'.
