Anyone driving slower?

i found myself driving slower on the way back from my girlfriends last night, and they are some good country roads.

think its becuase i dont want to fill up again before i go on holiday.

but i did see a MG ZR that seemed to be speeding around the other day, so obviously i had to do the same

Nope

Thanks to the 1/4 mile at Inters I averaged 8.6mpg while there and 28 on the way back

even though i basically hammered it home from inters i did about 150 miles, i averaged 52.summit mpg. think the remap helps on the mpg though

Yup....if you thought I was slow before you should see me now!!

I need a sign for my back window "Sorry, I'm driving a 4gear petrol, I can't afford to go any faster"

I think I've got worse recently!

Call me weird but I think it's down to my music. If I have nothing new to listen to I find myself just listening to my engine, so I drive alot faster. If I have something to listen to I'll turn it right up, but slow down because I can't hear my surroundings.
