Probably best not to have a curry the night before fella......

I have heard of this problem before, I think (bad memory) that Chris had a similar problem (Godderz23).
Alex will know for sure, he's an encyclopedia of Polo knowledge

That smell is either your old a/c gas, will need topping up/regassing or possibly a loose connection on your cat mate.

Mines smells eggy as I have no cat now, just the fumes.....

It can even be gone off washer fluid - that absolutely stinks when it goes off.

My dog made a right stink yesterday. Might be worth checking you've not got a Boxador on your back seat that you haven't noticed
Smelly bastard...
