Title: Just back from hols
Post by: cmeonthemove on 22 May 2010, 21:40:55
Just returned to sunny Norfolk after 2 weeks in Snowdonia. Was impressed with how the Elite coped with the steep climbs and drops, especialy in the searing heat this week. Autobox smelt a bit hot after though!

Overall fuel consumption: 30.2mpg over 1200 miles
Motorway 35.5mpg
Mountains and general touring approx 24mpg (7-8mpg on climbs  :o)

I got a few pics of her in the mountains which I will show to all once I've downloaded the pics off the camera - all 800 or so.  ;D I also have some videos to share of the scarier climbs...

My Elite blew up a couple of weeks after returning from Snowdonia - hope you have more luck ::)
