Car looking well mate but, can' believe you left it two years before taking her out for a jolly. Must've been hard waiting that long :smt055

Mine has started doing this on hot days mostly, or after a decent thrashing. I read the codes:

One reset ok but the other failed too, should I bite the bullet and replace the both of them? The DSC sensors - Are those the 2 mounted to the side of the brake master cylinder?

It wasn't to hard with Porker parked in other garage. I know it's sick, but to know it's still there makes me more happy instead of having the money on a boring account.

Your right, they are mounted in the master cylinder. Don't know UK price, they charged me 220€ (parts, time, read out), got 30%.

Did you replace the engine oil during these two years or just started her up after two years and went for a long drive ?

Roland, so out of curiosity, why the two year hiatus? You didn't drive it at all?
