Just been to gowdall near snaith if anyone knows it?
about 85 miles round trip 
then went and stopped off at a mates so tonight ive covered roughle 100 - 110 miles.....
Petrol consumption...................... i useed 12 quid!
Saying because of the thread on petrol earlier, and normally when puutting me foot down 50 percent of driving i get a max of like 22 miles to the gallon...this means i got.....
45ish miles to the gallon!!!!!!!! in a 1992 2 litre!
how awesome is that, and that was going 85 - 95 on the A1 all the way at about 4000 revs.
Handbrake cable snapped though when parking... i guess something has to go wrong ey But yeh thought id share my pleasure with you lot.

alo ive realised what a csuising machine the nova is on the motorway
even really responsive in fifth to go from say 90 - 100 to overtake then let it settle back at 85
nom nom. Also had a lil cruisey next to a 300NX is it???
Big, yellow, japanese thing was awesome.
Also saw a VERY nice cav, royal blue slammed on subaru gold alloys and tints looked like an sri or sumit.
also had some little chav in her zetec fiesta wanting a race. pleased to say that 20 miles later there she was on the hard shoulder with a policeman as i tootled past as 80
