I thought Oh no, has someone been making barbed remarks about doing your own googling and reading the results, but then twigged it's Reading in Berkshire, I should be used to it by now my daughter has lived there for 15 years

Just want to thank everyone for responding.

The thread was actually called SPEC CHECK FOR UK VEHICLES ONLY
This is the link from Admin - but as I said before its taking me to a dead page.

https://www.volvoforums.org.uk/showthread.php?t=297409

Or go to Forum index -》general topics -》General Volvo and Motoring Discussions

Admin sent me screenshots showing it is clearly there so I figured I was going mad....

The Thread is Locked but as in this screenshots, Admin can clearly see see it. But on my screenshot I can't (3rd Pic)

Anyone else either see it or not?? Trying to work out if its me or the site.

Cheers
Steve

I also can't see it.
I would assume that the Admin will have special privileges, and can see things common folk can't. One of these things might be locked/deleted threads. Perhaps admin doesn't realises the extent of his powers.

My view goes:

• Owners Manual.....
• Service and warranty...

[Miles of Smiles]

Thanks - yes, I'm thinking the same....

But I have to say, Admin have been very helpful via email, and have sent me the details of the Post!
Top marks to them.

Definitely not there. I understood Marc was overwhelmed with requests and I suspect not many were contributing to his Justgiving page so he most probably just quietly stopped offering the service.

I'm not surprised - great service he offered.
Maybe Admin locked and deleted accidentally as there's other threads that are locked that I have seen.

Afternoon,

Yeah, the thread was closed as Marc had too many requests coming in and it was affecting his day to day work.

It looks like the thread was also hidden, I can't remember who by (it was probably me that did it!) so that people wouldn't start PM'ing Marc and bypassing the thread.

Cheers,
James

Thanks for confirming James. And if it was you that helped me - thanks for that too.
