The fuel pump was dying a slow death and the level low (I reckon a duff sendor as even less in tank than showed on dash) and a country lane, all added up to a very lean running engine under high load. It has eaten a spark plug and damaged the piston and bore as a result. This is certainly pretty rare and it's the only A/S8 I have seen with such damage!
Absolutley gutted for Amar though, he's only just had the box done and loves his S!!!!
