Hello all, thought I'd introduce myself as no doubt I will have a few questions coming soon. I've recently bought a 3L & have been getting the hang of it. I've owned a multitude of cars over the years & this one I'm quite liking.

My record so far on the economy front is 114mpg over 250m, but its generally doing mid 80's in normal driving.

I've a few mods planned, cruise control & possibly a manual conversion....

Well its my eco car out of a collection of not very eco cars... However I do hypermile it where possible but don't go silly. It does much of the work itself, its coasts on downhills, has start stop etc.

I often instruct eco driving (when not instructing on circuit!) so can easily eeek the best out of it without really trying. I've have the Torque app & a V-Gate dongle & its interesting to see what makes it eco with the live data displaying. There's a few aero mods planned & some tweaks here & there, as & when I get time to play with it.
