Nope, Rownhams Services.
Broke down at 10.30pm 1 and a half hours from home .... got home 2am!
Pulled into the layby before M27 to check the car before the M27.
In the headlights of a car passing i see a glistening trail! :(
I look under and see a dripping from the engine.
I have like 7 miles to Rownhams....
I will just drive it and push it to the red line to get to those services!
I get to 3 miles away...smoking engine bay!
I get to 2 miles away engine loosing power!
I get to a mile away i break a sweat - inside lane just waiting until I need to ditch into hard shoulder!
I get to half a mile Charlie wont even reach 50mph!
I pull onto rownhams slip road and coast all the way into the car park - call RAC and sit and wait!
Bad times ... Rear main seal I think!
