it had 185/60/14 on the front when I got it- SCARY in the wet. these toyos are much better
I think I've sourced a lowering kit for it, for not much cash, and the first tank of 30% veg is in..
656 miles using 52.6L of fuel= 56.7mpg (imp)
15 L veg at 1/l
37.6 L Diesel at 1.459/l
thats slightly lower than the last two tanks..
BUT!
Lots of stop start on Mway due to roadworks on my commute this week, and carrying 60-65mph on longer runs (to my unit etc) rather than 55-60 I usually sit at.
plus 30% veg means I'm happy at that MPG- I reckon it'd have been better at lower speed with less tailbacks.
Sorting the thermostat should help as well.
