The car will be staying now that fuel is cheaper and the eco issues are corrected.

Anthony knows his stuff eh? It's a big improvement, but what I don't understand is how a lot of the 5.0l around here are getting similar fuel consumption. Surely the 4.0l is good enough for 12l/100km?

I'm happy with the drop down to 14.2. Heading down to the MotoGP this weekend will prove what the highway econ is like. Im driving the car like a granny now that i can see what giving it a little bit can do to the litres per 100k's :
