A friends GTA with a newly re built engine has started displaying blue smoke and quite a lot of it out the exhausts after only about 150 miles gentle running!
Any ideas as to what is the likely cause,
Turbo etc.
Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks for the reply Delage,
In this case it's a blown turbo.
This is my friends car and he also owns a V6 A310 both cars are glorious and run really well, good cars, I'm almost tempted to buy the GTA off him but my Tvr uses up too much of my time up as is. wink
