My Tuscan Red Rose is superb and everything I expected AND everything seems to work (touch wood), no leaks, rattles or major breakages. The only thing is that when it starts it sounds like a Massey Ferguson, I can hear every moving part in the engine. It all disappears when the fluids are up to temperature but I just wanted to check that this was normal?

I think all the speed six engines make a terrifying racket from cold. I know mine does. I have been told that as long as you follow the warm-up routine and avoid high revs until 60C oil temp is reached then nothing should break prematurely!!

Here's hoping
