New best MPG - can anyone beat?

90 mins down M1/M25

Just shows what's possible with 55MPH (had some time to kill!)

This is almost prius territory...

Amazing!  If you have the patience to keep to 55.

"ahhhh but what about the return leg you handsome fellow" I hear you bellow. Well....

Thought I'd try it with sunroof open and lost 5mpg...

You would have only lost 5mpg with the air con on.

Air con on both times 🤓

Believe the drag is worse than the drain from the compressor..

Well! That shut me up.

Well done Sir! An Excel calculated 62.2 on a return run to Royston was my best in Tiff.  Think I managed slightly higher than that in Betsy but that was being slightly irresponsible by sitting right behind an HGV all the way from Cambridge to Peterborough up the A14.

Should also say I've only ever used super..

Certainly made the difference in my is300h after I switched to it so I've exclusively used it since.
