Title: My 1st long trip & how she faired
Post by: spanishmike on November 14, 2009, 17:32:19

I have just returned from a 2 week round trip from S E Spain to the North of England and back a total of 4,040 kilometers The car a Style Sport 1.6 petrol had 3,000kms on the clock when I started the whole trip was a pleasure with no problems I used toll and motorways when available I set the computer to zero before leaving and returned a consumption of 7.0 litres/100kms at an average speed of 82kph The engine now feels much looser and I am hoping for better figures in the future
