Yeah The main reason I taught her any Hypermiling techniques was her propensity for 90mph, and £45 of petrol for 250 miles!

Happily, she's down to about £25 a week now

3500rpm is too damn noisy too!

I'll service it at the weekend and report back on condition prior to modding.

She's on P&G detail this tank!
