15,000km update;

So I've just ticked over 15,000kms and i have nothing to report other than it hasnt missed a beat. The vehcile has been rock solid and i cant fault it.

My current economy average is 14 liters per 100kms. I have never reset the gauge since driving it off the showroom floor so thats the average over the 15k. I reckon thats amazing! I use 95 most of the time and every 4th tank or so i put 98 in it. The 98 usually uses 1 liter less per 100kms around town but on the highway i think its closer to 2, but its hars to tell as its almost impossible to replicate the same driving conditions for each tank.

My biggest concern has been the size of the thing. Parking it at the mall or any other car space/park leaves little to no room to open the doors such is the size of the thing. I find that i always try and park next to a column to get as close as possible and leave space to get out.

Loving the refined quiet driving; until i open up the trottle amd release the ponies
