Up this morning at 6.30am, picked up the car share person and trundled into work- nice clear roads! early in means early out,
back home by 5pm, and nice easy steady driving! results as follows:
200.1 miles on an indicated 1/4 tank
Car sat for 50 mins, then it was off out to pick up my gran (she was coming to visit our new house
)
Much shorter return trip, but thankfully still lots of motorway and the car was warm to start with..
needle has moved a bit further in the 33.8 mile round trip, but I imagine its just that the tank is oddly shaped
pretty much a 100 mile day- poor car is in at the deep end.
At the weekend I'm going to service it, and have a good poke round to see what it needs- the front shocks feel soft, so I may be replacing them fairly soon. If it goes for another week after the service I may treat it to a cambelt..
then I can get eco-tuning the engine
