Cool, been keeping track of your average? It was havoc with the wind in our area today, you were either going to get great mpg, or **** mpg. I ended up with **** mpg (my average for the day was about 60mpg but that's low for me :p)

It was really windy when I was driving earlier! A right cross wind going on!

I keep track of my average with Fuelly. Its calculations are ALWAYS way off what my MFD says though.

I did 42mpg (according to trip) on my 140 mile journey to Liverpool this morning. Was around 70-80mph up until the Pennines and then it was 50mph and stop start around Manchester on the m60.
Journey normally takes 2hours ish but since it was early morning I allowed 3 hours and was still late! :(

Lesson learned. Waste of 13quid. I should have learned last time when it made little to no diff.
Mind the pics have the "Backlit" filter on from Tapatalk 2, it brought out the differences more.
