Default White/blue smoke

Got in the car to go to work this morning, went to the end of the road and did a 3 point turn. As I was about to reverse, I noticed in my mirror what looked like a big puff of blue/white smoke coming from the exaust.

The car didnt judder or anything, was running smoothly. It just seemed to be one big puff, then back to normal. Nothing else all the way to work.

Not had a chance to go back out to it, will keep my eye on it when I leave, just wondered if anyone had any idea what it might be or what I could check for??

Cheers

Keir

Just a bit of wear most likely from the stem seals, if one puff when cold don't worry, not worth fixing yet.
