motorway driving

[Donato]

my average fill is 60 quids worth, after changing my fuel filter and knowing what a pig of a job it is, i have no intention of shortening the life of the new filter by letting it run too low of fuel!!

yeah I here what you are saying... Idont let mine run dry either, but putting 20 quid in to top up isnt really filling it ...

anyway we aint gonna get into that...

should really change my fuel filter as I dont know when it was done if at all but dont seem to ahve the time to do it and dont want to pay the price of getting it done might do it at next oil change...

i hope you like the taste of optimax!  :rolleyes:  

[the lemster]

well I have become accustomed to the smell of it due to my inlet manifold gasket having a hole in it akin to the breech in the new orleans levee mmmmm optimax

Back to the original question As the man said: If you are looking at a lard arse, skybus or the delectable Sexy Rexy you aint going to see much difference in MPG [if you are worried about it dont even bother looking at them] overall running cost wont differ much - re-builds well thats another ball game, re-build on a \'7\' expect 3k on the other 2 loads ££££££££££££

Cant remember where I read this but Skylines cost neally £5000 for the parts alone to rebuild (surely not  :confused: )

Just to add to fuel thingy - I brimmed mine before I went to WGT and when the needle finially dropped to the halfway point I had done 220miles (ie 440 to a tank! - surely not :confused: ( again! )
