Default Ping: Any 'WelshAlfa' forum users

It appears that the founder of the site has gone AWOL and hasn't renewed
the subscription for the domain.

Is there any interest in me picking up the ropes on my italiancar
domain? - I'm pretty sure it's straightforward for me to set up a PHP(?)
forum, so I'm willing to give it a go if anyone still wants it.

fastest way is to setup a phpBB forum, self install www.phpbb.com i guess

I used phpBB for a while but changed to SMF
http://www.simplemachines.org/ and found it prettier with more
features. Installation and updates are even more straightforward than
phpBB IMHO. SMF is free too. YMMV.

Feels completely different to me - it has a different feature set too.
You'd need to ask the developers for a definitive answer..unless
someone else knows.
