I am sick of this weather, all I have done is drive round in a Porsche 911 for no apparent reason down allsorts of twisty and interesting roads, when is this sunshiny thing going to stop and give me a chance to get some other stuff done? I dont know how many more boring tankfulls of optimax I can burn around the dorset countryside I really dont. The dog is biting me when I get in, the kids dont recognise me I have done no cooking or cleaning for days, tomatoes are withering in the greenhouse and to cap it all I only have 3k miles per year on the insurance so i may have to add another 2 onto that !! bloody british weather !! :P

I feel your pain.

On the other hand, this might be the first year I actually get anywhere near my mileage allowance … bloody Scottish weather!

The answer is 10K mileage allowance :D Works for me. (& set it to run on stock unleaded & live with the loss of a whole 5 hp. Saves a few pence per litre.) It's actualy raining here. :shock:

That's what I was thinking :) Do I fill up with Optimax before the remap? For a few horses. But it already costs £80 to fill up. Would be more like £100 with Optimax. Doubt it would do enough more MPG to justify it. If the wife found out she'd have me driving a Nissan Micra. :roll:
Just got a load of grief for getting Band of Brothers DVD's for just £17 Six DVD's for £17 is not expensive! :blackeye:

I get 6k a year. Managed 3 last year. Bugger! Tony used up 1200 just to Brunters last month and we've still got Gaydon to go. Think I'm doing the Tesco runs for the forseeable future....
