Title: back to work and better mpg
Post by: Richie London on 27 May 2008, 20:14:31

went back to work after a few weeks off. blinkin knackered but happy enough apart from no breaks after lunch till 7pm when knock off.

put 60 quid in, did 47 miles in total and still showing 287 miles remaining. got up to 31.7 before i had to turn off for work, mpg was steadily climbing then i came off. not so good coming back cruised at 110 for a while and finished at 26.4 when i parked up. but im well chuffed im getting good mileage now.

thanks everyone, if it wasnt for all your help i'd never of done so much work on my car.  hope i get to buy you all a beer one  day and i do mean that. cheers(http://emoticons4u.com/happy/143.gif)

slow down to about 75 on your way home, it should climb a bit again
