Imagine it, the boss lets you take the brand new Ford Focus TDCi (works car)out for a few hours. It's only got 200 miles on the clock and it's allshiney and new looking. You're driving along at 60 in 4th when all of asudden..........judder, judder, jolt,........then huge plumes of white smokebillowing out the exhaust blinding everyone behind you before the car grindsto a halt. Oh dear!RAC man came out and took one look at....not a trace of oil on the dipstick!New cars, eh..?!--David Speir(remove NO.SPAM to reply)
