Well today I filled up and broke my mpg record - this tank averaged 52.1 miles to the gallon. Lovely. Perhaps (at 11k miles) it's beginning to break in :wink:

....and as if to taunt me for saving money on petrol, the oil light came on - i've used up the 1 litre that the car came with now, having previously used 0.5l of it.

Sounds good!

Do you notice an increase in performance too?

Maybe it takes a while for BP ultimate to kick in but wait till you near 20k, I'm at 18.5, in the last 2/3k it's starting to rev easier produce the MPG VW claims and surprise me somewhat in 2/3/4/5 gears.

Shame I'm selling it really the car's really getting into its stride now!!
