Red face OMG Smoke !!!!!!

Sitting at traffic lights this afternoon when I see smoke in the wing mirror. Lights turn green and off I go like a bloody genie .

The smoke then disappeared [instantly after setting off], so I get home and sit and idle for a while....nothing. Fettle the throttle a bit still clear. What could it be.

Couple of things to consider.

Sitting at lights on a slight incline and car just had it's MOT [so surely if it was smoking it wouldn't pass emmisions]. As regards the turbo, no noises just a light whistle when spooling etc.

Does anyone have any thoughts.

Can't think what it could be.

Roo

Oh and PS I have a decat.
