We got back alright thanks to Steve(PPP) and Claire- just waiting for the return of the car!!

Engine let go up a hill at about 110, just went down on power, check engine light then slowly tightened up until coming to a complete but noisy stop at a parking point. I could restart it but sounded like a tumbler drier full of ball bearings and the oils had a nice metallic finish to it!

As for the car park, it appears the brakes on Alfa's (Jimmy) are not as good and Scoobs (Steve, aka (un)Lucky)!! Also I heard from Worzel that Duncan blew his engine 15mins from home in the UK!
