MPG to make you consider switching to the dark side!
« on: 04 June 2012, 19:49 »
Just had a cruise back from Hunstanton with the missus, averaging between 55-60mph due to traffic, n I was gobsmacked to see that from a 58mile journey, I averaged 63.1MPG!! :laugh: :evil:

Might not be as fun to drive a derv, but the money I save on fuel means extra money towards mods! :smug:
