    Sure that would be great, I'm in Putney and should be around all weekend if you're in the area? I would head over to you, but I don't really want to drive it anywhere other than a garage at the moment!

    I'm on 07970 270151 if you want to call.

    Greatly appreciated - Paul

    Hi,

    I drove from London to Bath today, glorious weather, roof down and the big cat performing beautifully...

    However when I got home I could see a sizable puddle under the car, and dripping at quite a good rate from the big hose that runs under the power steering expansion tank (I've a V12). I can't actually see the source of the leak, although it's running down both that hose and the front of the sump. I'm presuming it's where that hose connects with the engine? And my best option would be a new hose...? If so, I presume this is a garage job as I've only got a couple of axle stands so access underneath the car is pretty poor...
