M42 South just before the NEC/Airport exit at about 11:45am. I was in the middle lane moving into lane 1 for the exit and a Porsche came past in lane 3. Suddenly there was smoke everywhere. It was not out of the exhaust. Looked like it was from the engine bay. He pulled over onto the hard shoulder. Grayish colour smoke and when I drive through it it smelt of oil.

No idea what it was, but I bet it ruined his day

Which model, 911, boxster etc.???

Bet the owner's gutted, poor fella.

A few years ago now, I was coming back up the A1 from Scunny's triumph at Wembley, in one of the worst rainstorms I've ever seen, when a 911 passed me as if I was standing still. I commented to my passenger that "that guy's on his way to a funeral: his own", and thought no more about it.
When we reached the A1(M) south of Peterborough, the warning signs were on for outer lanes closed, and as we drew nearer, there was matey on his roof in the outer lane!

Not up on Porsches, but it looked like a Boxster convertable.
