so, another tank down,

396miles for 52.39l, and a "price war" over here meant paying £1.279/litre rather than 1.30-1.33

34.38mpg is not too bad

Also got some modding done today- retro fitted a front of engine cover to the underside- it fills the gap from the slam panel to the sump

Gap and area before fitting

The panel (it extends out to the wheel arches too)

Fitted

I then promptly drove home at 70mph to Get home for tea, so I reckon this tank is gonna be rubbish!

swings and roundabouts, eh?!
