This might well be a silly question...

but my car seems to be running uber rich at the moment - if I start up and then go to the boot, it's a struggle to breath LoL :lol:

And if it's cold, so you get the smoke/steam/cloud effect thing from the exhaust, it will literally have a trail that's about 10 feet long before it disappears :shock:

My petrol consumption still seems about the same (£15/100miles, 300 miles out of a tank) so is it just the case that my cat is fooked? I've always been quite near to the limits on the MOT sheet lol

could be a cold start problem. one of the temp senders. or lambda sensor

check the colour of your plugs if you think it is consuming too much fuel, thats the first place I would check.
