Gave the estate its first long distance test over the weekend, well happy.
Drove a 585mile round trip from Gloucester to Northumberland and the fuel lights not even on yet
That's loaded up with a full boot, wife and 2 kids!
I didn't hang around either so I'm pleased as hell with what looks like around 50 mpg at a guess.
In other news, I got the mr2 back on the road, aand the headgasket went in under 400miles
Its had a full top end rebuild with top to bottom gaskets, rebuilt oil pump, new water pump, cambelt and clutch.
It's even quicker now, and scares the shit out of me
