Hi, Thanks for allowing me to join.
I've just posted General Gassing and my post seems to have disappeared.
Hi Geoff. You should have received an email explaining why your thread was deleted (check in your spam also). It will tell you wish of the Posting Rules have been broken.I've just posted General Gassing and my post seems to have disappeared.
In this case it is because we don't allow "what's it worth?" threads on the forums.

Welcome to PH! You can buy that exact car right now in the PH classifieds
https://www.pistonheads.com/buy/listing/14313450
Yes, I have seen this advert. However, as Brera and wife's car are staying, the budget for SW is in areas of 2k. Going to the seller with such a low offer would be unforgivable 😉

Greetings! I found my 2003 996 4S on Pistonheads a couple of years ago but only recently felt the urge to dive into forums. Mainly because two warning lights (ABS & PSM) which came on and off from January this year (after discs and pads were replaced) are now permanently on - although without any obvious effect on performance except that there is no feedback from the brake pedal if I try an emergency stop. Diagnostics in October didn’t find anything but now point to the ABS pressure sensor. Local mechanic is struggling to source one but thinks it might be the same as that used by AUDI/VW which he can probably source. Porsche haven’t been forthcoming & told him to replace the ABS unit which will cost a fortune if it’s a Porsche exclusive part from Bosch. Has anyone else had this problem? Thx in advance.
Welcome to PH! I'd recommend posting in our 911 forum for advice on this here https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/forum.asp?h=0&...J3zza said:

Hi,
I think I've got an issue with the headlights on my Seat Alhambra (VW Sharan with a Seat badge on it basically) and I wanted to post about it to get some advice if possible, but I couldn't see a relevant section for it. Could you please point me in the right direction?
Thanks!

11Hi I need to get advert alerts on a particular car model - Porsche 911 (991 - TARGA) - I've emailed Piston Heads but have not had a response, can anyone help please? THX
Welcome to PH! Once you've performed a search, there's a 'save this search' button in the search navigation. This will create a saved search and email alerts are daily by default.
You can change the frequency on your saved search page here under the Buy menu https://www.pistonheads.com/account/savedsearches
We have a keywords field where I've added 'targa' here for this example https://www.pistonheads.com/buy/search?keywords=ta...

Hello Ben. I and my late husband used to go to the Sunday lunchtime pub meets with likeminded TVR owners. So, you’re my first port of call with the query I have.
I’ve had my late husband’s Chimera 4.0 convertible in the garage for over 20 years. It’s also had a custom made TVR cover over it as well. Immaculate condition and only 4270 miles on the clock.
Need your advice please. I know a very good mechanic who could get it started after charging the battery etc. Would it be best to do that and he then drives it to his workshop or have it transported to his workshop for a service and MOT?
If the mechanic was to drive it to his premises it would have to be taxed and insured etc but it obviously hasn’t got a valid MOT. So, would the transporter option be the best thing to do?
Trying to cover all my queries here. Who would you recommend please for insurance?
Re selling the car - I assume this site would be the best place to advertise it?
Thank you for your patience in reading my rather long post. And thank you in advance for any helpful info/tips that you think I would find useful.

If the car has been sat for a long time, it would likely be best to get it transported to the garage . And absolutely PH is the best place to sell a TVR in our classifieds. Depending on where you live I'm sure there would be a number of local PH dealers that would sell the car for you on a sale or return basis if you don't want the hassle of doing it yourself.
Thank you Ben for letting me join the forum .
