We're back from a very sunny France .. wonderful holiday .. didn't want to come back really ..
Some statistics for those with nowt else to read ...
Miles covered : 2330 ("clean" 571, "topbox & bars" 774, "topbox, bars, & tin tent" 985)
Fuel used : 439.24 litres LPG + 28.05 litres petrol, actual cost £351:05 in total
Computer readout of fuel consumption 106.9 galls (485.33 litres), estimated cost of petrol £636.75
Actual cost per mile 15.07 p Projected cost per mile if only petrol used 27.33 p
Saving £285:70 or 12.26 p/mile ....
(savings are high due to large amount of towing in the equation)
Euro/£ 1.24, litres/galls 4.54
No major problems but a couple of little "I wonder why's" ....
On 2 occasions after a long drive and a very short stop (Pee break) in temperatures of 27 degrees, the car failed to switch to LPG, and could not be forced to do so, had to drive 40 odd miles each time on petrol. Once able to stop and the engine off for over 20 minutes it worked as expected... most strange ..but an extra 79 miles on petrol ..
We also had a recurrence of a tendency to overheat, but now know it to be in very particular circumstances, I'll start a thread on that in Omega Help, never actually overheated as I was watching it like a hawk, but 'tis a tad weird .....
Between us we took over 500 photos, but very few of the car... there just weren't the right settings ... but this is us "on site"
and this is us the night before leaving .. set up for an early start...
Hope the weather at Newent is as nice ....
