Del Boy Omega Lord Offline Posts: 9381 Ashford, Kent. Gender: Drives: Various things.	Fuel consumption 21. Dec 2009 at 19:30 Was pretty pleased today, Saab showed on the SID that it was averaging 33.5 MPG this was A roads, motorway and town driving when SAAB's figures show that Combined fuel consumption should be 27 MPG, was well chuffed with that Even more chuffed that my van had been returning 63 MPG with mostly town driving and I've not been driving lightly either

Know what you mean mind you, been averaging 10 MPG past couple of weeks, and people driving slow isn't a problem with a proper gearbox Wink
