One for the MPG watchers
I know you don't buy a Cossie for good fuel consumption, but after having an MSD chip fitted a few weeks back, I'm now seeing 360 miles out of a tank of fuel in the Saph.
This works out to around 30 mpg average, which I reckon is pretty bloody excellent for a YB.
Then my TDCi-owning mate who does a similar commute pointed out that he gets twice that, and so spends £120 a month less on fuel than me.

fuck me that mondeo is leathal!!
i remeber when we picked the saph up, i was following in the mondeo and it started revving the tits off it, i was in 4th so though bollocks, the clutch has gone
but nope, it was infact wheel spinning in the mild damp
they not nangkang tyres on it, they much worse - proppa ditch finders, so nearly stacked that thing many a time
still, it got me home from brighton in exactly 1.5 hours. not bad for a 150 mile trip (was 1.30 am tho lol )

Got some kind of problem with it so it's off to Karl's for a bit of TLC...
