That's a bit personal isn't it. I call it breaking wind.....
It's actually down to some very careful driving a bit like the Jeremy Clarkson drive to Edinburgh from London and back on one tank of fuel in the A8. It's actually quite exhausting when trying to drive very efficiently.

So would ' sorry officer, I had to rag it everywhere because driving economically is soooo exhausting' wash with the local constabulary?
Seriously though, I do understand what you mean, trying that hard to be uber economical is harder work.

Well I've had it for a whole week! You may have seen my other thread asking for advice about the recalcitrent dealer but overall, 1200 miles done in the first week and I've settled into it. Really enjoy driving it and I understand why people
Look for excuses to go out for a drive.
IPod kit fitted yesterday, much better than the Belkin radio transmitter I was using. Just need to get the issues sorted with the dealer and I'll be a happy bunny.

Dealer emailed me today, it's booked in for 1pm on Monday. A couple of hours should see news discs, pads and window seal.
