Default Layout review - "FORD PASSENGER CARS -> Falcons" section

The forum has been around for a while now...

IMHO... If you break it down, there are a few minor flaws with the way its structured atm...
(i.e. the same way it was 3-4 years ago)

Take for instance the sub forum
Ford Passenger Cars
"If they sold it as a passenger vehicle in Australia.. look here !"


First sub section is
Falcons

Within that we have:
Classic Falcons; XK -> XC (11 different models)

Post Classic; XD -> EL (8 different models)

Contemporary Aus Fords; AU -> FG (4 different models)


Now correct me if I'm wrong but the term "CLASSIC car" when referring to car age
means anything that is 25-50 years of age
(50+ being "vintage car")

this kinda negates the current "Classic Falcons" section covering XK- XC doesn't it ?
My 1984 XE falcon will be considered a "Classic Car" by my insurance company come September....



Moving onto the "Post Classic" section covering XD - EL
I'm sure most would agree that this subforum is dominated by E-series posts...
Do the XD-XF owners really need to be segregated from the other X-series guys ????

Instead of referring to the Falcons in terms of Classic/post classic etc...
which really changes every year the cars get older
(in 25 years a BA falcon will be a "Classic car")

Would it be appropriate to break up this section up in a different way ?

I'm yet to come up with a "fantastic suggestion" so far myself...

just thought I'd put it out there for now, to see if others felt the same ?
