    Get yourself over to http://forums.mg-rover.org where there will be someone in the area able to recommend a good garage or mechanic to sort the car out. There might even be a local forum member who could take a look if you like.

    And make sure they skin the head and fit the modified LR head gasket :p

    It will probably turn out to be a stuck electric window or something, but it will still be the HG too. I don't think I have seen a single Rover 25 this year without coolent pouring out the exhaust.
