Hi everyone:)
I'm Adam, a 29 yo math PhD (theoretic, not applied) from Warsaw, Poland. I don't yet have a car of my own, but I did drive an Opel (Vauxhall) Corsa 1.0 (C) for many years, now I get my In-law's Peugeot 206 every now and then. In both cases I learned a few fuel-saving techniques by myself. My wife and I are looking for a car for long distance driving, not too big but not too small: 2-4 people plus hiking backpacks, 400-600 km towards the mountains. We're just starting to zero-in on something which gets great highway milage ( maybe a Peugeot 307 1.4 Diesel), but I'm already thinking about how I'm going to lower its thirst when I get it into my hands :) That's how I found this TOTALLY AWESOME forum. I decided it wouldn't be fair if I just read the posts and didn't add anything from myself, so here I am! I'm hoping the info I get here will save us a lot of fuel, and I hope that anything I post will help someone else.
Regards,
Piwoslaw
