Did you not stop when your temp gauge was creaping up to the red? when did you last check you oil level??

 

They don't always creep, I can say this from experience. On Sunday I took mine for a test drive after replacing a core plug and water pump and had left a hose clip off. I looked down one minute and the gauge was at normal, literally seconds later the gauge had shot right off the scale. Luckily I dont seem to have any damage, hope this one is ok too.

No, mine didn't creep either, to be honest it wasn't the first thing on my mind, I was more concerned about the steam visibly coming from under the bonnet, it wasn't until after I'd opened the bonnet I looked and realised the temp gauge was at its' highest.

 

Oil is always checked at least once a week since it drinks per week about the same as my Punto does in an entire year ;)
