Good work on the mods so far -- does the car have MPG instrumentation?

And I noticed your photo of the roof/hatch termination. Thinking about a Kamm type extension there?
Thanks. Yes its alot to drive. But i get 0.19€ per kilometer. And i use around 0.08 0.09€ per kilometer. A single trip is 120km. With around 85km straight on. The last bit is heafy traffic.

Its all about mocking up for the mods. And seeing what it does for mpg. I did my upper grillblock again tonight. See what the temps do.

I bought a scangauge 2 a couple of weeks ago. And i love it.

And the pic of the hatch edge i put in to show how good/bad it is. For how it is it is nice. But for a kamm its bad. Because is goes slightly up on the trailing edge. Ofcourse i want a kammback. I love them. But where the big gains are to be won is in the lower back. The bumpers are to round. And the underside realy bad. Im rhinking of a flexible diffuser. Mounted on the rear axle on hinges and sliding holes on the back. With a 10/12° on normal weight load. I'll try to put in a more clear pic
