Sometimes, when I turn the ignition off, the engine continues to run. The worst I noticed was in czech after a long journey.

She did it just now and I'm guessing it's because she's warm.

It's generally only for a few seconds, a bit of a splutter, maybe a purr but then she stops.

Any cause for concern?

Its Pre-ignition I believe...

As Sean said, engine too hot? Or when my GS does it, is the choke on?

That Czech fuel made my car really really slow and smoky and I found it ran on when i was there, it's been fine since!

cheap fuel and car hot due to a good thrash makes mine run on, not a problem if its out of gear when you let the clutch up!

Czech fuel was terrible... who wants 91!?!

She did it a lot in czech so I concur with that and the hot thing makes sense too; It was a bit cold so we had some muff action going on, maybe I'll do without the muff and during the day and only use it at night.
