    I get around 800 regularly cruising.

    700 - 750 around town.

    I run synthetic oil though and change it every 5000k's otherwise it runs like c#^p in comparison!

    Only if it was a very late import, AFAIK all 300tdi's have the blanking plate.

    Well cut off me legs and call me shorty!

    You learn something new every day.

    This would explain why the blanking plate on mine looks so professionally done.

    Thanks loanrangie!
