I have since become resigned to the the fact that comfort has to be payed for. i.e. Weight requires power and the power to weight ratio is acceptable and must be paid for. What are your findings?

I find I'm getting about 440Kms, using 91. It is a mix of highway, and Welly, but does include 4 trips over the Rimutukas....

*&%$* Hell!.......7.9?
By my maths I'm doing 13.5L/100Kms. But as I said that is a real mix of city, motorway (Yes! NZ does have some...lol) tisty turny stuff and 52Kms of mountain road with a total climb of 2200m. Been using the wifes Toyota pilea**** this week and that worked out at 10.4L/100Kms...... so I think I'll pay the extra and have the fun. |

There was no stop-start driving, as I filled up just before the freeway, and filled up again just after I left the freeway, and entered Sydney. From Sydney to Canberra, I got 8.4 L/100km - it was on the way back when I got 7.9. Jason.
