I pick it up on Saturday!!!! Can't wait.

Thought the number would have been higher as its only just been registered (last week). Maybe it had already been allocated a number a while back - the garage said they'd took a deposit on it but then the geezer couldn't/wouldn't stump up the balance, so when I came along it was still unregistered!

Anyone know a decent ICE place in the Cambridge area? Oh yeh, and does anyone know whose best out of the Cambridge and Peterborough dealerships?

Cheers,

Matt.

cheers guys,

she's got 400 miles on her now, but I'm planning a family visit for next weekend which should rack up another few hundred.... then there won't be too long to wait!

I think someone said they got 29mpg whilst running in! I got 22mpg off the first tank and this one is looking worse :shock:

ah well, can't be rapid without burning some go-go juice can it?

The person who said he was getting 29 mpg got the numbers muddled ;)

it was in fact 2.9 MPG :shock:

It was 29 - honest. But I am a driving instructor so I drive very carefully - sometimes, and it was before I had any mods. However, I haven't checked since the last lot of mods so god alone knows how many I'm getting now. I'm too scared to check.
