I was trying to find a chop to show a friend yesterday and it took me about half an hour to trawl through the countless threads and forum sections to eventually find what i wanted, and I thought why isnt there a search function like most other websites, where i can put in like "euro ford fiesta" and it would find any post or thread containing that phrase, so i wouldnt have to go through all of the other irrelivant stuff. didnt know this has been asked before or anything so admins do what you want with this thread, cheers guys.

yep agreed , sometimes its impossible to re-find certain stuff , so if thats possible it would be great

Maybe the functions of tags?

like on DA or flickr, you can add tags (key words), maybe we can do that for forum threads?

But good idea MrAnderson!!

I know this has been something that's been rather sought after for quite some time. And in fact it's been on my todo list for ages too. I'll try find time to build a search function over the weekend.
