Perhaps you filled it with weasle, I mean diesel. But I'd check out the cat, anyway. Next time you're filling up, try using Stoatimax. Seriously, hope all ends up ok.

May have a pheasant suprise and find it not too deer to have fixed. Don't minx one brand of oil with another whatever you do. Otherwise your engine may be frogged.

Good luck, hopefully nothing too serious.

I think they are only trying to make you laugh matey cos you are having a bit of a bad time obviously!

Hope everything is OK - just to make you laugh though we found a big puddle of oil under the car a few weeks back . However when we looked at it a bit more closely it turns out the damn tub of Magnatec had emptied itself into the boot And was leaking through! Phew!

Anyway hope it is nothing serious and look forward to meeting you at another event.

To be honest I'd have the right camel hump if I were this guy... You lot just dont know when to stop acting the monkey and giving this guy the bird. I mean it's hardly the time to start having a giraffe at someones expense.

Anyway, hope the car isn't too bad mate.

Edited to add:

Notice your car is a 2000, lets hope if they do have to any work on the engine it will get the latest internals, my latest Speed six is the new lump and seems 100% stronger than the old one...

Sorry all, but I was P1st off when I wrote the thread.
It looks like it is terminal, Its going to the blackpool infirmary!! Damb.

On a lighter note - and I am not feeling like one, for all you budding Trevors out there - I would still buy one and its still worth it even if I can not afford the repair, Ill have the shell put back in my garage so I can have a drink, watch it and dream of what might be...

Gutted for you. Have they given any indication of the cause or do you have to wait for Blackpool to diagnose?
