Tigger.

Fair point. I must admit I do stick to the limit on the motorway and get very good mpg to work and back all week. It's weekends and B roads that are bringing down the average in the R56. I must try a full tank of taking it easy and see what I can get.

It will be interesting to see if there's really much difference ?
