on that basis, looking reasonable for 60ish imp MPG so far

I've been scouting out replacement part prices etc- all very reasonable. this weekend should see some work done to tidy her up.

I'm not going to mod (apart from putting on 4 matching wheels- they're 195/50/15's, less than 0.33% smaller than the stock 185/60/14s..)until the first tank is done- get a nice baseline figure!

At this rate may be two weeks for first fillup! makes a nice change from 3 days on LPG!
