If you don't exceed 3k rpm could I suggest that if you removed your turbo, you could save weight and get even better consumption.

By the way, could it be the same PSLewis here Middle Lane Owners Club - Welcome

Here we go again ....... where did I say I get 37 mpg around town??

Go on, point me to it

I think you will find in my first post I say:-

"It has carried the family and dog across the country, it has towed a Folding Camper, it has carried a Top-Box, it has eaten miles with ease, it has returned 30mpg on runs and 25 around town, it has humiliated many a 'performance car' and it has done so without a missed beat"

I expect an apology ...........

But you did say that you 'usually' get 350miles to 45 litres, yes?
If not, where did you get 37mpg from?

If you find 'winding' complete strangers up on an internet forum fun, you are classed as a 'troll', yes?
