Mr Fluffyballs Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 I'm not far off the middlelands now. Only 352 more miles to drive today. The car is behaving perfectly and I've just discovered what I can only describe as a feature. The seats have built in armrests! Proper swish. loserone, stonedagain, Saabnut and 12 others 12 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Fluffyballs Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 That's Portsmouth to Preston done so far in the Subaru, which is a Subaru therefore it's time for fuel again. Because Subaru. If anyone wants a guess at what MPGs it's managed so far then I'll update at my next stop when I've done the calcumatations.

nomiST Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 (edited) Ha, my non turjo barbered does 31 emm pee gees on a long run giving 300 miles to a tank. I hate to think what this will do! Is the wind noise from around the A pillars deafening? I've given up on the radio over about 60 mph. Cracking cars, well done.

skattrd Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 I wouldn't expect the turbo to be any worse than the na when on a run. I rarely find turbo much worse on fuel than na equivalents in everyday driving. You use more fuel when accelerating, but you spend less time at full throttle. When hooning, that's a different story (my PB was 13mpg from a 660cc car) I'll guess a round 30mpg I wouldn't mind a forrester myself, but ej20 and automatic for me, so JDM spec yo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Bell Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 As @Mr FluffyballsFluffyballs has the lightest of foot, I'm gonna venture 31mpg. big_al_granvia and loserone 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Fluffyballs Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 Tebay North, the disappointing brother of Tebay South.

Flat4 Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 Safe journey Bucketeer. Hope you get a good rest on the bus I will say something more coherent, probably in about 12 hours time, when I've recovered from working a 14 hour day which has paid for quite possibly my absolute perfect car in the best condition my budget would allow. I cannot give enough thanks to you and Stanky for making this possible. This wouldn't have happened without either of you and I honestly cannot put into words how grateful I am. Thank you for everything you've done for me. big_al_granvia, Jim Bell, privatewire and 21 others 23 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
