2 cars out = 1300 miles of fuel out my pocket, 2 train fares for the tunnel, 2 flights and 1 lift back! no change from 800 bucks. he paid for it all tho, so i am not gonna grumble!
to start with, going to folkestone, used 1/2 tank and got 200 miles out of oy02 vtl, but that soon changed once got out the tunnel onto foreign tarmac!

Things go by & come up very quickly at those speeds.
I bet that speed last too long with the amount of fuel you had left ;D
Did you look at the instant consumption? I'd love to know how many gallons to the mile ;D

one tank in holand and germany lasted 140 miles so yeah, about an hour or so

Thats a lot of gas for such a short distance glad you got the money back. how much do they go for over there at the moment as i've been told twice as much.
