Unfortunately, due to a design fault, the heat causes the inner component of the snail to vaporise. This results in the shell only, (clearly seen in Post 56, photo 2) which causes a rattling sound from the inlet manifold. A common occurrence, not often understood.

Very clever my dear Watson......

They were trying to convince the park keeper that they had broken down and had to pull onto the grass for repairs..

It's the Rover version of "Bottoms Up" called "Bonnets Up"!...... (And it's got nothing to do with them breaking-down all the time either - because they DON'T)....lol.
