On a good day I get ~250 miles out of either of my RX-7s. That's around 50-60 litres banghead

At least they have the potential (when running correctly tongue out ) to go quickly..

I have a 2.0 petrol Grand Scenic with a 4 speed auto...

You will be quite a lot faster then my 1.6 147 though hehe

TBF, the range indicated was after a good 10-15 miles of low speed stop-start driving, i expect to see more when i rack up more motorway miles.

My barge will do 500 miles on 75 litres when barged properly. Normally it's more like 450.

I'm on a train and the guy next to me keeps sniffing. It's starting to get annoying now.

Daily occurance (the train)?

Everytime someone posts about being on a train on PH i expect an interesting thread about picking up an epicly awesome car, bought sight unseen for 100 quid 300 miles away.

Cycling home today, I was in the cycle lane on a major road. Someone up ahead in a minor road was waiting to come out but they stuck their nose out too far forward. So I had to look to my right and move over and out of the cycle lane.

To my surprise the driver then reversed back behind the line so I could stay in the cycle lane as I went by!

Hang on a minute. Iva is on his hols in Italy. My daughter is on her way to Italy as we speak. Should I be concerned?

One of the second hand car emporiums I deal with has a Zenos at the moment. Never heard of it. 'Ah ha!' I thought, 'Now there's a cheap and cheerful way into high performance.

Idiot.

There are three for sale currently on PistonHeads ranging from £28,000 to £47,000.

In my defence, the one I saw wasn't displaying a price. Not much in the way of doors or weather equipment either.


Here's one we saw in Adenau a few weeks ago.
