Hi

just recently with the price of petrol hitting 105 I've been working on the economy a bit. Of my last 4 fillups, I've managed just over 500 miles 3 times. Never more than 530 though. not bad for a petrol.

my trip meter b is on 3600 and showing 53.5 mpg. not bad, nearly all motorway though with cc on 70 dead. It wouldn't do that in town.

for those with newer cars, mines done 55k miles now and the economy does get better as things wear in.
