Not managed to get through a whole tank without topping up yet. But if the P1 was anything to go by, I'd enjoy the comparative economy of the running-in period while it lasts.

ummmm....running in....whats that all about??? *G*

Full tank of Optimax at the weekend....M3, M25, M1 (with a short stop off in Milton Keynes for the "first STI8 Owners Meet" , then upto Leeds...home...then to the office and back....263....red light was on and I was was running on vapour??!!

Theres a 1st time for everything...and also a last...as it gets its 1st 1000 service on Saturday (fingers crossed and presuming Chiark brings it back in one piece having had the car all day today) I guess I won't be seeing the same figures again in the future...
