ROFL! That paper is amongst the most dubious ones in the UK along with the Star. Neither renouned for the truth unfortunately. Great if its true but take with a pinch of salt from that paper.

I agree with saff_cossie. People told me that too when I was in the UK.

Good to see him on track to a full recovery. He a good lad & the show rocks!

Here's a good link for Top Gear & Final Gear links & info.

Particularly at the moment for updates on Hammonds recovery.

Yep, possibly the only one that is worse is the Sport (Daily and Sunday), I would never trust any so called newspaper that has a nipple count.

Damn The Sport, how could I forget! Used to love reading that on the paper round! :D

      Blue/grey smoke after idle

      I don't know, I've never done it that way, but 1. While it is an interference engine, there is still clearance between the valves and the piston at all points in the regular timing cycle 2. There is not a lot of distance before you can't catch the top of the valve stem any more I don't know if 2 is greater or less than 1. But 3. If it doesn't work out you are f**ked, engine is coming out to disassemble so it is a big bet.

      Semi slicks are horrible for road use, just use a high performance road tyre unless you really need the maximum grip. Noisy, unpredictable (amazing, until they are not), expensive due to very high wear and not good in cold and particular wet. And yes, it is a thing to store cars on stands instead of tyres if you know they are going to be parked up long term.....but who ever realises that a short park is going to stretch into years before it is out again!

      I know in Australia you'll definitely get above 30c. Parked in the shade in Summer you'll be above that. 😛 But in cooler climates, you might get that warm driving on the highway for a bit, but you'd never get to full heat temp. I'll try and find some of my historical tyre temps between Aus summer and winter (be aware immin the warmer area of Aus too.)

      I get that taking off the head is best but that's a bit much for "just" valve seals. I was just under the impression that one would be able to rotate to TDC and be able to temporarily drop the valve without losing it and effectively having to remove the head to then recover it. I never knew people actually pushed rope into the cylinder to do valve seals hahaha So just to confirm, just going to TDC will not work? In that case I know when I do valve seals I'll maybe just remove the head and do some other things while I'm there, or just wait until I do an engine build.
