Nice, another blue bug with Morettes! :ok:

Very nice think the bugs are starting to grow on me now .

I like it!

Very smart - welcome :ok:

Very nice. Welcome to SES. :smile:

Looks a nice one.:doubleup:

thanks all but the car is in the garage it got an overheating issue

Welcome , nice car, hope you get her sorted.

Sorry to hear u have problems mate - hope it gets sorted soon :ok:

looks good

Nice looking car you've got yourself there

i hope it does get sorted i want it back already

so today the garage rung and said my car was ready for collection
the problem was the water pump had got rusty inside so it was pushing rusty bits around the hoses and blocking it all up so in the end they done the cambelt and water pump new rad new thermostat and flushed all the hoses out
had to stop on the way home tho as there was smoke coming from under the bonnet so rung the garage back up and they said it could be the parts as they are new and there was a horrible smell aswell but got it back home and was all ok so hopefully it was just the new parts burning off

When I had my cambelt changed last month, I was warned there may be steam coming from the bonnet for about the first 20 miles and not to panic :) x

Just keep an eye on the gauges and check oil level, oil and especially antifreeze can give off a nasty smell, easy to drop fluids on headers, engine and up pipe which will make it steam and smoke, hope she's ok now. 👍

why check the oil they didnt do anything with the oil but i do check the oil before i drive just incase :)

check for weeping rocker cover gaskets too

I had a v3 a few years ago which leaked oil from a rocker cover onto wrapped headers, was a nightmare for smoke if it stood still for a couple days. Anyways good luck with your car.

must keep my eye on that
