Probably not much in it :-[ I only get about 32mpg

I've had a stainless steel 4/2/1 manifold, decat and exhaust system, since then its been running a bit rich, might be worth replacing the Lambda sensor :(

Funny you should say that. MOT emissions were a bit marginal this year too. Suspect the Lambda's getting a little tired as it was lean on the fast idle test.

Exhaust is getting a bit tired too. Now, about this stainless system... 8-)

......
stats :

miles travelled 958.8 of which approx 380 were towing

estimated petrol use from the MID 42.61 gals @ 22.5 mpg .....

When we went to French France with the caravan we did a similar overall milage but IIRC I used 78 galls!!!  :'(  :'(  :'(

I forgot to note the MID info before I disconnected the battery!  :(
