Default Mileage record?
I think I set a personal record on the way home from Germany/Brugge - 302 miles on a tank!!!

Was getting a bit touch and go on the way home from Dover trying to find fuel!

thats good going!!

i've only had mine a few months but taking it carefully brings about some almost 'normal' returns!!

the Shell garage finder app on the iphone has helped me out a couple of times.... athough i was in rye yesterday and was trying to workout which was closest considering i had to get to maidstone..... hastings, ashford or cranbrook..... cranbrook was the winner, nicer roads back to mine!

I did the about the same on the way back some years ago but it may have been the cable ties and gaffer tape slowing me down
