I understand, but I found that my fuel log comments were getting repetitive. I just try and adopt every trick from the white book, but especially the longer stretches of highway driving at moderate speeds, drafting behind trucks, and p&g is where the big savings are made, along with the already efficient design of the A2 3L.
Apart from that, all there is to say about the car and its owners is right here.

No, it doesn't. Has the gearbox ever been replaced or refurbished, or its software upgraded? Gearbox failure (software-wise) is the only real issue my A2 has ever suffered from in recent years.

I do hope so. Although in all, I'm quite happy with my Bridgestone Ecopias, but they are not the nec plus ultra either.

I visited your website before, so your hubcaps had already attracted my attention. A fine product imho! Will keep them in mind for any of my future vehicles. How much are they approximately?
