Normal 12mile round trips to Saxmundham and back on top of the odd Ipswich journey. a good 100 miles spent driving to MK. LPG sparkplugs installed which react faster, may explain the 2 MPG drop efficiency since the last tank?!

Return journey from near Hayle in Cornwall to Leiston in Suffolk. Filled up before completely empty to get a good estimation on the MPG for the 444 mile journey. Mix of A and M road driving with the passenger window partly down for ventilation.

Cornwall driving, hence mostly averaging 35MPH stuck behind a tractor, foreign tourist or driving up and down a selection of scary steep hills. The Auto feature of Opal worked well on the hills, we never rolled back.. However I am sure it hit the fuel economy.
