Took mine to put some fuel in it..

Average after a few miles isn't too bad, checked with pen and paper, the trip is "really" rather than "quite" accurate. ;)

Chap near Saffrons cross garage has a nice caged 90 ;)
 
Finished up another long day of driving and let the wife take this on the last leg. This is the onboard computer score, obviously. I have a PSI box installed and so this isn't true to life. I have just sat down with pen and paper and worked out an average of 35.74mpg. I don't think that's too shabby at all seeing as it was half motorway and half A roads, most of which were through Cumbria and very very hilly!

Just some interior cleaner in a bottle and a cloth took all of about 10mins
Bit of fairy and water over the mats and a brush off and left them to dry by the stove.

If I get a chance tomorow il give the outside a wash and chop them chrome side bars off.
Still in debate on doing the wing vents colour coded or the original grey.
 
Gearbox oil and filter. It came out red so hopefully that's a good sign.
Apart from the fill plug being half rounded ended up being a hammer and point jobby to undo it.
Had another fill plug the same in a gearbox I had sat out another motor
Drives the same feels as smooth as it always does.
 
Finally got round to investigating the HEVAC fault. LH blend motor, RH blend motor and distribution motor all showing faults. But the system actually seems to work fine. If next weekend is dry I might actually start pulling stuff apart.
 
Finally got the chrome side vents painted.
But may just colour code them instead.
And the foglight trims that was in primer.
Currently away to get cutting discs and remove them eyesore side bars
