Motoringfile.com Down? - 7/15

Is it just me, or is there some kind of problem?

It generally seems fairly stable, so hopefully Gabe's ISP is not having any serious problems.

Yup, it's down. Don't know why... interestingly, his personal website (http://www.bridger.us) is still up. The same look and feel, but perhaps it's hosted on a different ISP and/or server?

Thanks for the concern guys.

We are currently upgrading MotoringFile to a new host. We had planned on having minimal downtime this weekend however, due to circumstances out of our control, things will take a bit longer than anticipated. We expect the site to be back up sometime on Sunday - just in time to post some more juicy bits of info on the 2006 MINI.

Cheers
Gabe Bridger

PS: A big thanks to Matt for kicking *** and taking names when it comes to DNS servers.

SUNDAY?!?! What am I going to do without MotoringFile until Sunday?!?! The news, the how-to's, the reviews (ugh... that all rhymed)... breathe... breathe... damn MF withdrawl.

I guess it's back to the next best thing: MOTORING IN A MINI!

Keep up the great job Gabe: LOVE that site. Really helped push me over the MINI purchasing edge.
