Hey my name is Joel and I am from Sweden, currently living in Lithuania but will move back to Sweden in about 2 months.

Since I got my driving license 16 January 2008, I have been interested in keeping a low fuel consumption while driving. This is something that was part of the education in the carschool were I took some lessons.

It hasn't always been done very seriuosly though. But I am learning.

In 2012 my wife and I bought a Toyota Yaris -04 1.0. My choice of car came after been driving a Yaris in my job. I have been working from time to time with driving newspaper early mornings and driving the Yaris was a lot of fun and very comfortable, also its fuel consumption was impressive (This was a diesel).

As there is many starts and stop you can anyway by planning ahead get a consumption of about 5.6 L/100KM easily. On weekend people sleep a little bit longer and then I have had the chance to make some records, and hitertho 4.2 L/100KM withstands.

My experiences with this car in work, made us buy it.

So now I found this forum and am very happy for that. Eagerly looking forward to learn more!
