OK, the bulk of my driving is to & from the office. That ranges from 40km/ph to 70km/ph zones. A couple of times a week I will get onto a freeway & put the 'boot' into it on the entry ramp section & use all the revs to about 4th gear!

I don't class myself as a revhead but more than a few times a week the traction control light is flashing as me

I found when I first took delivery of the car my average was somewhere around 16L/100km for memory - it has slowly come down ever since. I never reset it..
