It was sold on saturday, due to my guilty conscience, I just couldn't keep taking up all the petrolstyles said:Driving a VXR? Shall i put your name down for a electric car?
My quotes on the vxr are purely town driving. Motorway it's about 35-40mpg at 70ish at 50mph on A roads about 38-44mpg but that depends entirely if I am enjoying myself or not. Standard VXR's rev to around 5.5k too and then a swift gear change is needed, my remapped one was revving to over 7k easily.faster4_tec said:saab aero fetchs better economy.
although aero SIII vs a std vxr would probably be matched, the saab doesn't like revving much past 5.5k not sure what a vxrs like in comparison
saab fetchs upto 41mpg on a road at 60. 36 on motorway @ 80 etc

I'd still like to see where all this increase in spending is going. as from what I can see, spending is going up in pretty much all departments.
the thing I'm most interested in, is bobbies on teh beat, there are plenty in sunderland. but durham force are looking at getting rid of OVER 300 bobbies

Heres hoping
