I think the mpg is down this trip though..

b- a distinct drop in coasting distances..

should still be around 39mpg hopefully
It was a bog standard 9-3 2.0 I remember, plastic wheels and furry seats. Slow too - slower than a non-melting Himalayan galcier.

Yeah rain has hurt recently, I did get a nice 65 average going from Helensburgh to Stirling and then to Embra instead of using the M8 to get home last week. Lovely views too. I think this may make a better tank than the last one - 260 miles and under 1/4 used.

On the way there I had to use the M8 - loved the Police closing a lane in Glasgow because of flooding, and pushing the traffic instead through the deepest part...
