First refill of my new tank following on from Wales trip and my trialing adventures :augie
I know some got "flushed" but my score is an eye watering 19 MPG :lol
So 35s, oversized turbo compressor, lead boots and a tenancy to "test" the old girl , is strangely not conducive to gentlemanly fuel economy :doh
However, I firkin' loves it :naughty
Now with added LPG :surrender

But with your 35's on have you adjusted the speedo gearing as otherwise you will be recording less miles than you actually cover, Rick

Yep I allowed for that. I used my sat nav and found the speedo 6% out :thumbs
It was pretty much spot on when I was on 33s
However I have not allowed for the petrol diffs in the system, I got befuddled at that point

I'm glad you've said that actually as I find my speedo is bang on now too on 33's compared to what the sat nav records :thumb2
