I went out for a gentle drive this afternoon, just goes to show what these cars can get from a gallon if you're careful!  :smiley:

Never bored inside the Clubsport, it's a nice place to be even driving steadily.

Still turns heads too after over two years of ownership I still get a lot of attention when out in it.

I frequently get 43/44 mpg on my daily commute. Single track A road with zero passing opportunities and the single largest concentration of ditherers and fossilised drivers on earth. You have to go out driving after 10pm or on Christmas Day to have any fun (or even just get from A to B at an acceptable pace) these days.

How can you stand having your power/volume button not straight?

That bugs me too. I always use the steering wheel control for that reason  :grin:
