Help

I have a 2003 MG ZT-T 2.5 190+. Went to start it this morning and within 30 seconds there was smoke coming from under the bonnet (Mainly passenger side wheel arch) and then the engine just spluttered and cut out. Tried to start it later and it turned over a tried to fire but then just went dead. All the electrics are still working and no warning lights show when it does its checks. Any ideas?

check to see if you got coolant on your coils/ignition parts. you may have. you might have broken a hose or coolant line.
