Did a trip to the cinema this PM (the Tin Tin movie is recommended ) and got 73.7 average. I'm at 400 miles with 2 bars (probably 1.5 really) left on the gauge.



My phone mount hasn't arrived yet, will do videos when it comes hopefully on Monday - I'll start with a typical commute and maybe get some tips. Clocks go back here tonight (summer time to GMT) so trips home will be in the dark from Monday.
On motorway in speeds above 110km/h (68mph) Igor cant do better than 5,5 l/100km (43mpg). He had one tank with almost 7 l/100km (34mpg). This was before his new hypermiling life but I doubt that it would be much better after the minor mods I have done.
