Hi, I've had my A reg Mayfair for 5 years. After crashing it we then re-built it for imm 2011. Had no problems with it and it even went to Italy this year for the imm. However, Friday night I was out driving and a funny popping noise was coming from the engine. The car was still running fine but everytime I put my foot down to accelerate, away from lights etc, I had to really put my foot down just to get some speed up. I've checked leads, plugs and timing and all are good. The noise seems to be coming from the carb but I'm not entirely convinced. Could it be the head gasket?
