Gaulson Posted May 7, 2015 Posted May 7, 2015 I got the Carbon Sti style one. Lovely spoiler, need to watch for people using it as a table though ;)

robwrx Posted May 7, 2015 Posted May 7, 2015 Did u get the full fitting kit with it? I bought the fibre glass copy off them an they sent it with 12 nuts and washers
Dogconker Posted May 7, 2015 Posted May 7, 2015 Gearing the XV up for the big excursion. 1200miles around Scotland in 3 days. I reckon this should take about 2 tanks of fuel. She'll be getting a clean inside and out this weekend so it's a nice place to sit for the drive. Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk
majik_thighs Posted May 7, 2015 Posted May 7, 2015 2 tanks of fuel?????.....that's so not funny!.......[emoji85] Sent from my Galaxy S 5 using Tapatalk

Sent from my Galaxy S 5 using Tapatalk Taking my camera with me, even though I'm working, might try and get done arty shots of the XV if I get chance. 2 tanks is a conservative estimate, if u drive steady I could possibly get 800 per tank. You'l probably find that even less funny [emoji4] Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk 1
majik_thighs Posted May 8, 2015 Posted May 8, 2015 Oh.....hilarious mate!.......you have a good trip anyway. [emoji106] Sent from my Galaxy S 5 using Tapatalk
majik_thighs Posted May 8, 2015 Posted May 8, 2015 I used to get 700 to a tank in my old laguna. So your doing brilliant for a 4x4 Sent from my Galaxy S 5 using Tapatalk
Dogconker Posted May 8, 2015 Posted May 8, 2015 It's the car rather than me, just very economical on a long run 65mph on cruise and you'll get 55-60mpg. I've had 79mpg out I of it be hypermiling, but that's really hard work and tedious on a long run. Got 102mpg over 200miles once out of a 1.6D Civic when Honda asked me to for promotion made the national Honda magazine. Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk
Gaulson Posted May 8, 2015 Posted May 8, 2015 Dog you are an mpg master! I get nearly 600 miles to a tank in the Leon and I think it holds the same as the scoob. Shame its a rubbish car (mine is anyway).
Dogconker Posted May 8, 2015 Posted May 8, 2015 The XV costs about £55 to fill it. So I reckon I'll do the 1200 miles on less than £100 if fuel. Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk
stants Posted May 8, 2015 Author Posted May 8, 2015 Day off up to the coast glorious weather came across this
Dogconker Posted May 8, 2015 Posted May 8, 2015 Don't see many of those about Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk
Gambit Posted May 9, 2015 Posted May 9, 2015 Coming back home And had a little play with that Ferrari 360 spyder. Heard him gear it down and give it some. I thought game on then he backed off :( Safe to say though I will take the victory even though I'm sure he wasn't trying :D
Dogconker Posted May 9, 2015 Posted May 9, 2015 My mate used to have a Sierra Cosworth and tried it on with a Lamborghini Diablo, he held him up to 120mph at which point the Lambo dropped it two gears and F***ed off like he was parked. Way to look like a numpty. Mind you he was the same guy that later that year trashed it by showing off jumping blind over a humpback bridge and parked it in the back of a Transit, and I mean in the back as he hit about door handle height. Not sure his car would have survived even if the van wasn't there. Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk
majik_thighs Posted May 9, 2015 Posted May 9, 2015 Dog you are an mpg master! I get nearly 600 miles to a tank in the Leon and I think it holds the same as the scoob. Shame its a rubbish car (mine is anyway). I had one as a courtesy car while mine was in for a bit of work and I can assure you they are all terrible, does yours have those idiotic criss-cross wipers which park at the windscreen pillar and howl like a stabbed banshee at anything over 20mph? Oh......I have a question totally unrelated..........whats the title of Clarksons latest "World according to" book? Off on a tangent there or what?
Gambit Posted May 9, 2015 Posted May 9, 2015 Yep A world According to Clarkson. :) I'd messed about with the Ferrari before to be fair wasn't really quick 1st time it pulled away don't get me wrong but wasn't leaving me like I wasn't trying :D
majik_thighs Posted May 9, 2015 Posted May 9, 2015 They`re all called that, they each have a subtitle like "Is it really too much to ask" and "For crying out loud" I have them all except the last one but I can`t remember which one it is. Mine are all packed away for the house move so I can`t check......looking for the paperback version on eBay.
majik_thighs Posted May 9, 2015 Posted May 9, 2015 Brilliant toilet reading........each chapter is a different subject so you don`t lose your thread. Widely available in all good charity shops :D 2
