Got a nice long hill in mind after the tunnel into Andorra to see what I can get. I wonder if the display goes into 4 digits.

Up to 29.7 mpg now. Can't take a photo as Mark is driving. We've just swapped over and now we've hit traffic. Must be Mark's fault!

I think our MPG might have suffered as we've been dragging the weather with us:

So we crossed the board 10 minutes ago, now Mark who has never been to Scotland commented that it doesn't look much different. I'm not sure if he was expecting blokes in skirts at the side of the road flogging deep fried mars bars and short bread but I think he's disappointed!

Just wait til he sees the midgies lining up for dinner, then he'll see the difference. :lol:
