Bought my VL about 3 weeks ago, and it runs like an absolute dream, no knocks or noises.
But on sunday I was sitting at a set of lights on a hill, and when I took off I glanced in the mirror and noticed that the car was blowing a bit of black smoke (not blue, so it's not oil).
It only seems to blow smoke when it's under load, it's not really a huge issue but it's using a fair bit of fuel, and it's kind of embarrassing when half the back bumper-bar is black... :embarrass
