Quick update, we got the car out storage, where it's been for 5 years.
We eventually got it running again after fitting a new fuel pump and replacing 2 perished fule lines.
I have got 2 warning lights, I recall they came up just before we took the car off the road, so likely not anything to do with being in storage
I know they are ABS and Traction control related, any suggestions where to start sorting these out?
I am trying to borrow a reader to see if it indicates the specific fault, but was wondering if there is a common widely known fault ?
Cheers

The Traction and ABS lights will come on if the battery has been disconnected I believe, (not 100% sure), but once driven over a few MPH, should go out.
However if it's an ABS fault it could be on of the 4 sensors or the rings, maybe the the ABS pump. Most generic code readers do not cover much more than engine faults. I have used Forscan to diagnose ABS faults on one of my Puma's and a friend's.
