Posted 15/04/06 05:03 AM Share Posted 15/04/06 05:03 AM Hi guys just to let you know that goldie the car has done a motor. Just picked up the groom and groom's men slowing down at round about and bang noise from under car and flames from under bonnet. Oil and bits of engine on the road. I will be pulling motor apart tonight and tomorrow so will post pics and what went wrong than.
