Smile Derv mileage
Just checked mpg over 479 miles, motorway and town driving, gives 41.19 mpg.

Happy with that.

Awww .... you make me feel bad now.

Sorry Pete .... you know I'm just jealous.

All I've got to offset my 260 miles on a tank is the awesome V6 growl.

my mpg has been low 40's for a while, been using the loud pedal far too much recently - esp as i want to see the differnce with the car now it dont smoke

i suspect this tank will be pretty poor too as i wont be filling it up until after my remap at Matt's on friday!

Think with a derv you can go for mpg, or fun, I've gone for the fun and I'm still pleased with the mpg that it returns.
