Post by: CRSMP5 on May 24, 2013, 10:53:31 am
a place i found a few weeks ago, www.driiive.com sent me interesting email.. click pic thinggy in my sig.. i liked how easy it was to use.. i also like old mini copers.. they got old fiat 500pics too..

but its a new place out of europe.. good for users ride type of posts.. drag/drop pics so on to share.. their email to me was fun so wanted to point out the place to who cannot see sigs on their phones.. they want to mail me something so asked for mailing addy to ship me a "gift" ohhh boy maybe a princes check to cash?? who knows.. but they loved the kubvan.. you could tell they looked it over by the email too..

so check them out.. think of it as facebook for your car..

facebook for your car..

Say it ain't so!

What will they think of next to keep us from productive work and drinking beer?   I guess you could drink doing Facebook.  Most of what is posted makes me think that is a requirement anyway.  Right TheMan?

Give Me?  Maybe.  The only thing Romania internet will give you is trash mail from all their kings looking to put money in your bank account.  That comes with viruses that crash your computer and ID Theft. 

Let us know how it works.

playing around on there today i see they have a "groups" section.. http://driiive.com/groups  (they can be found bottom of main page, well 3 choices, once in there you can go to the group page to see what there is, i have to be logged out as my stuff in testing and i get different screen... )   ... wolfsgruppe i sent a email too as well no users still.. but hit me.. if they can have their "vw nut friends as a group" maybe a few of us should ask to make a group for soot lovers.. ohh i know.. need more members.. :P crazyshine supposed to join with his bus so he can be 1st bus listed.. :D he can add his bunny build too

i doubt i wanna loose my "driiiver" aspect as i am getting to play with a few new ideas... they great.. but if you soot lovers wanna do such things.. say something.. i know they read us here.. :D

1st thing is pick a name.. of the vws most have listed.. lot of tdi/diesel..

sadly you and the bromarro forget something so simple.. your screwwing yourselves.. LOL.. want a key chain.. post more info pics.. LOL. the "driiive" team is from poland.. or europe.. how ever you wanna view it.. to them jeeps, chevy are not "every day" cars.. LOL.. whore them out.. LOL.. my collection is rair here.. and there.. so i like pimping my stuff out.. you all forget.. i liked the place and joined due to the old fiat/minis.. they just have sexxy lines.. and i want more.. LOL.. so joining allowed me to keep up with new stuff...

but to them.. you have th eive never really seen but maybe 1 or 2 in person effect.. much less get to go for  ride aspect.. so share.. let it be a i getta enjoy their euro stuff.. and i can have a set of people see my common here stuff that is not so common there..

I didn't forget. I just got in and did what I could. I didn't have more pics and I had to go to my friends calling hours/dinner. I ended up being the first Jeep and wrangler on the board. I took some more stuff and added it. But there really isn't much to tell.
Title: Re: www.driiive.com
Post by: CRSMP5 on July 20, 2013, 06:48:45 pm
well just rember few things...

let them kick the tires.. some pics so on so they can go wow.. why not just buy a rover diesel... them make sure they know.. no diesel 4x4 options for us.. so gotta go custom.. ;)

gotta kinda rethink who your trying to show off too for now :D not us usa people.. the others.. :D

i find it interesting to look at the newer vw and honda stuff.. like we have here and there hard to tell.. but the catchy ones are the odd balls.. to them a bromarrow, a jeep.. for us highschool kids have... not them.. :D they got bmw and stuff.. so your flaunting the wow look at what they got.. :D

sadly you jeep pics better then jetta ones...

so.. to count..
kubvan, jackrabbit, bromarro, jeep, audi from fatdubs, shine's bus.. vr6t/mykes coupes so 2.. sadly more then 1 mk1 coupe.. lots more.. but it is nice to see us usa people posting odd vs the masses of late mini/honda.. nothing wrong with that.. but hell id love to see smoker join and show off his b1 wagon... i see it here.. but hell how long has one seen there in full function.. rair here.. bet there too.. 

who else has stuff with 2 wheels or more to be a 1st one listed :D if anything post it up.. be a 1st for others.. a few nice pics.. some details.. let them kick your tires..

Improved Driiive is coming very soon! That’s why we decided to show you a little bit of the new stuff, before we actually finish upgrading Driiive:-)

For the first time Ladies & Gents, here it is – http://driiive.com/catalogue
What is Driiive Catalogue?

Upcoming update is going to solve many smaller and bigger issues. One of them is definitely the ability to easily discover other cars on Driiive. In other words – easy access to the Driiive database. The Catalogue is going to take care of that problem:-)

Driiive Catalogue goes on & on & on & on & on to infinity, so discovering is very comfy:-)

Driiive Catalogue - cars listing

Driiive Catalogue features:

- easily discover all projects on Driiive
- sort option (alphabetically or by creation date)
- search option
- narrow listing by choosing specific Make/s

From now on you’ll have one dedicated place where you can discover all the amazing projects that are on Driiive.
Driiive Update#3 – when?

Very very soon, I would say sooner that you think!

We’ll let you know by e-mail, so don’t forget to regulalry check your mailbox.

If you’ve got any questions about Driiive Catalogue or have some interesting thoughts about Driiive just drop me a message – [email protected].

Cheers,
David from Driiive

ive been playing with that for some time... the commin update is so sweet... not allowed to discuss... but few here play with such things..
