How do they taste Rich

I don't have a thing against diesels per se, the smell of the fuel makes me nauseous. Makes filling up a real trial. No I'm not having you on this time.

Sounds a bit rude to me, are you sure you want to broadcast that sort of inf

Seriously. What is the flavour similar to, if at all. Did they kill it first?

What speeds are you driving to achieve 55-60MPG??

An indicated 50mph (sat nav shows 47mph), using diesel from the local Morrisons Supermarket. I won't bore you with further details other than saying it takes just as much concentration as going fast.

I wish I could get that from mine! On a very long motorway trip,from Scotland to Bristol, I got 38mpg from my 1.8turbo.

I did Andy that was at a constant 56mph with cruise control on and managed 67.2mpg. The best I've got out of the one I own now is 34mpg

Hi TI RICH. I get the same, although mines a tourer and I believe they are a bit more thirsty. I did try BP and it certainly is better than anything else I have used. Still can't get over 50.

Pah.

I've squeezed 43mpg from a KV6.
