Took a steady run from Swansea back home as traffic was heavy

Filled up before I left

220 miles - pretty impressive i think

For example (not hijacking, sharing)



one tank.

Another tank actually did this figure



(bottom one for those who don't know)

This is the worst MPG I've got from it, it won't go below it



and it'll do this (that's km/h btw)

yeah, but I'd got about 500rpm left and it wouldn't pull at all, it's a little better now it's remapped.

I've been cruising round in a brand spanking 318d this week

I, er, like it.

Bit too floaty though, and the brakes don't feel sharp enough.

My brakes are shit.

I've not noticed mine being floaty, unless by floaty you mean sideways?

I almost killed a cyclist as I'm used to the Mazda's brakes and these just dont work the same

I meant on under braking mostly, squirms around a lot.

That'll be it then. Probably didnt help that my passenger was being helpful and flicking the TC on and off whenever she felt like it
