I have only seen an average of 15 mpg due driving the Sag the way it was intended to be driven

All credit to you Tony but like Chaz I would have had the boss in with me for probably 75% of my time in the Sag and while she is happy to let me have some fun in the nice cars I do still have to be realistic about how I am going to drive it a) on the road and b) with her sat beside me.

To be honest if you are going to do a trip covering the miles you are talking about then driving it all the way in a manner to return 15 MPG I would be very surprised if you didn't amass a few of her majesties displeasure points from our friends in blue.

Good luck on your journey and hope you decide to keep your Sag , they are lovely pieces of kit for the money.
Thank for the well wishes :-)
The run up to Scotland (Inverness) will be a steady 75 to 80 max,once on the NC500 we will obey the speed limit or try at least as all it takes is one of us to get over excited lol
I can only agree that the Sag is a lovely piece of kit,to give you some sort of idea i own a ferrari scuderia,lamborghini diablo sv,porsche 964 turbo and various outber cars,yet since buying the Sag its the only car i have driven which makes a bold statement!

Always found that making progress where conditions permit usually results in no interaction with the BIB unless the observation skills aren't working as they should do.
On that basis that it is being chosen over the rest of your lovely collection why the thoughts of selling?

I only sold mine because I wanted to scratch a different itch whereas you already have many that you can scratch all at once.
On the A/B roads its a good weapon seriously its just like a go kart on steroids, yet on the motorway anything over say 1.3.0 doesn't inspire one with confidant,who knows i may just keep it,love the sound,colour and most importantly it looks incredible!!

I organised a drive to the Lakes yesterday and managed around 20 mpg
I did approximately 280 miles round trip,the speed that we were doing can not be aired but i have gaind confidence in the Sag and its rock solid at 1.4.0 and on the twisty scalextric roads it reigned supreme,the speed was electric too,so to get 20 mpg was fantastic,this said the 70/80 miles drive back was a 70/75ish
