Welcome, looks in very good condition. Yes the WR is one thirsty son of a bitch :shock: I averaged 90 miles on half a tank when I first took delivery and that was driving semi sensible. The most you will get is around the 238 miles to a full tank. I average 200 at best, that's driving in old man mode. :D good job it's not my daily driver so doesn't empty the wallet :o.
There is an ongoing debate who gets what miles out of a tank of fuel, some have been remapped, some modded, some never use the turbo :wank: just go by your own experience and driving style.

Congrats on the car mate. Your lucky you have Autotecnica right on your doorstep. Im only in Stoke so not too far away and can vouch for the roads up that way. Much say I was on the edge the other week heading over to Adam but at least I found pretty much my limit up there. Wont be going like a bat outta hell over there again LOL. Funny how bumps in the road seem so much worse on the wrong side of the road.

Look after it mate and maybe see you around sometime
