phantomchic Just because it is, doesn't mean it should be.....

I do feel much better about it now. I will take the advice about backing it in - especially with reverse sensing this should be the way to go.BTW it's only got 500km on the clock and is doing 14.1 litres/100km - when does this fuel consumption start to come down to the advertised 12.1? Or is that just bs? I'm not doing much "city" driving - home to work is about 25km and 80% of the journey is on 100km speed limit (gotta love Darwin).<{POST_SNAPBACK}>maybe when the excitement wears off there are a lot of threads on fuel consumption ..On the HWY I can get round the 10's round town ... anywhere between 11 and 24 shazzy
