I stink

[Pooh]

Every time I drive the car I stink afterwards and today after driving it I have a sore head(could be the wine from last night though).
The car has a slight blow from the LH exhaust manifold and I am wondering if this is causing the problem or weather it is a more fundamental aerodynamic issue which is causing the fumes to get into the cabin?
I am planning to go to the Central Scotland TVR club meet tomorrow and I am worried about getting gassed.

You know, it's funny you brought this up.

Used to get something similar in us olde Cerby: suitcase in the hold, several hundred miles of pan eurothrape later et voila - one and one's swmbo possess the questionable tang of something that's spilt on a forecourt.

Indeed, one of the many factors which prompted that great car's disposal was the fear of sudden combustion c/o the requisite, errant leakage.

Damn shame.

You WILL smell of petrol and exhaust fumes after a drive. They all do that sir. If its giving you a sore head though there might be a problem.

Were you driving roof down? If it was roof down, it could never have been excessive fumes.

[Pooh]

It was roof down but it still seemed rather fumey.

Have you replaced the fuel hoses lately?

You chose your name well.

I hadn't thought of that.

The fuel hoses have been replaced, but the fumes are more like exhaust than petrol.
