OT - I am curious about your diesel consumption per 100 liters ? care to share such info.......
I do mostly motorway mileage for work so i get about 640miles on a full tank doing 80mph using cruise control.
I also get around £250 weekly tax free mileage allowance from my employer(me) which helps. still comes out of my pocket(via my company) though .

The difference between the allowance & petrol cost goes Into a Car savings account. That way I am able to save for car depreciation or maintaining the car but easier said than done.

I only wish hector will raise the mileage allowance in light of current petrol costs & up-comming RoadTax hike

One thing I have noticed is that I seem to get different mileage range depending on which filling station i use i.e Shell/BP/texaco. Can anyone shed light on this or its just my imagination?
whats ur consumption like?
