Very good indeed. I did a trip from Essex to Scotland and back, fairly easy motorways there and back, but some hooning round the hills and got 27, thought it might be less than that.

I did over 30 when I got the car and it was not run in. I got just over 3 when I took it to Milbrook though!

Had my Tamora for 6.5 years and have never got more than 24! And that includes motorways at steady 70mph!
That includes before and after engine blueprinting....
