Don't you hate it when that happens...
« on: 08 March 2013, 21:29:22 »
As a cunning plan to avoid those shitty SC5s, I've been sending Mrs TB to work in TBE ::)

The bitch has just managed over 20mpg over a tank, and I used it in that time as well. I could rarely get 18mpg.

She's being awfully smug about it, as I said she'd never get 20mpg  ::)

She's obviously not trying hard enough ::) ::) ::)

I only managed 190 miles to a tank full last week and that included long runs :o :o :o

Mind you, I filled up at Peterborough at 22:00 on my way home and also had a run back from Colchester at midnight on that tank so not really a surprise the mpg was poor :-[ ::)

Bitch? Just grassed you to Mrs Gixer, she's texting. Expect a slap, completely out of the blue, any second now. ;D

All down to driving style, bet she does not brake as much as you. Or as late should I say  ::)

Long run I think 22mpg is do-able from 3.2 LPG  :)

Despite my best efforts, she is yet to master threshold braking  :'(
