Tad concerned! Had my Tuscan 10 years now and no major issues! Parked it today and noticed what looks like slight damage to my bonnet just in front of windscreen. It's not bad it just looks a bit distressed and misshapen. Initially I just presumed something has fallen on it. No damage to paintwork. I put my hand on it and it's absolutely roasting! Rest of bonnet is cool but an area about the size of a dinner plate is at melting point. I had only driven the car for about 10 mins so wouldn't expect it to be that hot. Anyone had this before and How worried should I be!! Will run the car to work tomorrow and see if it happens again. Cheers guys.
