300 mile round trip with the top down this weekend with my faithful companion Ben.
It seems that cats & dogs can be happy together after all Smile

Did a relaxed drive just to settle him into traveling in the car...averaged 38mpg. I'm quite impressed with that.

One contented looking dog there and with a MPG figure like that I would imagine a very contented F Type Owner :)

38 mpg! Struggle to get mine above 25! And 25 is when I breathe on the accelerator rather than using my foot!Snapper2015-09-01 07:06:14

Yes, I've noticed that average mpg can vary quite a lot with my car.
On that particular trip it was mainly A-roads, not too hilly, not too many stops and starts. Just a nice steady drive with the occasional blat to get past some 'clutter' ahead that was spoiling my progress and view ahead.
I filled up as I set off and reset the trip computer and kept an eye on it during the trip. Once it had settled down after, say, 100 miles, It was holding pretty steady between 37 and 38mpg for the whole trip, although at one point I did see it almost nudge 39 mpg.
Up till that trip, i'd been seeing anything between 29 to 34 mpg, but I have to say in all honesty that I haven't been putting the car through it's paces since I took delivery of it a few weeks ago. I like to settle into a new vehicle at the start and get to know it a bit before I start playing too hard.
But still, it shows me that the car has the potential to be a worthy long distance tourer when needed.
That's good news to me because I was looking for a car that could give me both an exciting drive and a soothing drive....Just with a flick of a switch I can have either. Very happy so far!

If Ben's happy, then i'm happy.......Isn't that right Ben?
