Just had our first drive out.
Went over to Peterborough to take our daughter out for lunch.
Nice quiet and comfortable journey.
Average mileage was about 3mpg when I took delivery.
It's now 46mpg which is considerably lower than I was expecting as I didn't push it at all. Varied my speed but stuck to around 65MPH.
I know everything has to 'bed-in' so I guess it will take more than 120 mile round trip to overcome the 'shuttling back and forth' at the dealers.
Just a few fly squashes on the front and they came off immediately with one wipe of my damp leather. The extra waxing did it's job.
Almost had the front wing ripped off at a roundabout by some idiot tuning right to the 3rd exit on my nearside.
We also were coming off at the 3rd exit trouble is he wanted to go right round and swung in front of us missing by a couple of inches to exit up the road we had both just left!
