We can't broadcast these things daily / weekly as it would be an annoyance to some / most members, so its about creating a balance.

If members don't use the forum regularly enough, check out the regional section and or respond to the broadcast there's not a whole lot more we can do.

Hopefully all goes well for tomorrow
unfortunately I didn't see them, I have a life outside the forum (its called Royal Marsden) so I only go to my models section when I have time,

22.2 mpg on the homeward journey, Mike. Not driving like a granny, either!

Ok guys stilll mobile so apologies for pics duplicated. Have asked jim very nicely if he can sort that out for me. It was a good meet. Thankyou to everyone who came along and jim for the huge help and assistance. I now have a signed banner to go somewhere and some typing up to do tomorrow.
Btw anything over 21mpg beats my x type round town grin

I returned 29.6 on the entire day. Cruise set to 70mph, but some awesome acceleration.

Mind you, I've only got just over half the bhp that you have. Lol.

I must say, I do love your car!
