I don't believe it. Mrs TB has demolished my LPG MPG record on the bullet.  23.48mpg, using the same pump to fill. 260 miles, 50l

That's better than I get on a run on petrol ;D The M3 is now my frugal car - 28mpg on the run between home & Solihull..

I got 15-17mpg on the trip down to Cornwall, and running about down there. For the trip there and back, pikey box on the roof. Obviously removed when down there.

Don't think I was "sat at 75mph most of the time" though.

I think you'll struggle to get that with a Stag kit. Entwoods BRC is likely to be a shade more sophisticated and calibrated. But then he paid a lot more.

Although, if you have a perfect run at 75mph, who knows.  Your M40 run will get the MPG down simply by going through the Chilterns, and up and down Chickenshit Canyon.
