I guess you are talking about the advanced search for the classifieds.

The advanced search has been turned off because it is very database intensive and is a major factor in the performance problems that the site has been experiencing recently.

We are working on a permanent solution to the performance problems but in the mean time you can use the filter tool inside any list of cars to perform most of the same functions as the advanced search

Hope this helps

On the advanced search the search p/x field was really useful, can you suggest a way round searching for cars that people are interested in part x'ing?
