A Hard Days Graft

[Stevo7682]

Thought I would give my Skoda superb a bit of credit tonight after putting in a hard days shift without so much as a murmur of a complaint .
This was the route

This is what my trip computer said when i got back half an hour ago
( think would have made it on 1 full tank but lost my nerve a bit coming towards ayr with about 12 miles to go fuel really low range flashing between 5 miles and zero so topped up a tenner but i think i would have made it )

Overall milage

Overall average speed

Overall average mpg

Overall driving time ( not including stops)

Can't complain about that Steve

I can Dave not about the car though about me I'm done in

Iwas just working out the actual fuel economy as opposed to the lying computer.
I would need to fill the tank to the top to be bang on accurate but im going by i put a tenner in and whats left reckon it used about 1 full tank which is 62ltrs
So after a quick gallons conversion and a bit of maths i can tell you the actual mpg over tbe distance is more like 47 mpg
Wish it was 62

Good looking dashboard for a bit of Czech kit I have to say......

I love when that light starts flashing and I'm X miles from home and push it all the way every time!! Always found there was plenty of gas left when I filled up!! Ride the line to the end!! JIM

Bloody hard day in the saddle that, Skodas have come a long way from the early 90's.

A hard days driving indeed - good stats and performance too from a car make that gets a lot of negative comments from critics.

Great shift indeed, however, what have you been buying for the Zed??? These sorts of runs start by bidding on ebay!

Tried that with a new Ford Galaxy. It said 0miles and then promptly stopped! learned the hard way, only had to take the whole family to the airport that morning too...
Older BMW's tend have a litte or two still but not these new cars.
