Thanks Neil.
Just downloaded all five shots that you took of her coming off.

Did not get chance to talk to you after the engine prob. Believe that it was a HGF, but it must have been a big one judging by the smoke.
What are your plans now?

Havn't stripped the head off yet, but suspect HGF. All the smoke would have been the oil/water mix spraying straight onto the manifold. Hopefully rest will be OK as engine was switched off immediately.tut wrote:

Such a shame Paul as the car looked stunning!
Fingers crossed for an easy fix
