If you click on the picture of the S-MAX at the top of your screen, you will get to our new front page with all the extra bits

This is quick way to get to the Twitter, YouTube, Facebook, Flickr accounts plus you can subscribe to the RSS feed if your browser/device supports this.

There is also a link so you can access the forum on most mobile devices, just click the picture of the iPhone – we have tested with iOS and Android plus Blackberry. The new Mobile Layer deliberately has a relatively low "overhead" so will still be reasonably quick over 2g/Edge. The shortcut to the mobile layer is SMAXOC.com – go bookmark that now!

There are now also easier links for Registration (free) and Full Membership (£10). We would like to gently remind you if you haven't already stumped up for Full Membership, please take a look, as the more members we get, the more SMAXOC can do.

Finally, there is a direct link to the Search function. We've put a lot of time and effort into improving this over the last 18 months and with over 81,000 posts to go at the chances are you question about tyre sizes, alarm module/wiper problems, mpg, stalling, farting diesels or if you can "get three child seats in the middle row" has already been covered. If in doubt please Search first, it saves the mods/admins premature hairloss and grinding of teeth.

Hope that helps?

cheers
