    So whats with the Landy

    I have noticed with the cooler weather my Defender TD5 is rocketing along. Is this a calm before the storm or should i just love passing Toyotas at speed.
    Travelling between the Goldy and Sunny of late.

    I think it is the cold weather Dave, my Puma is going much better! Perhaps it feels more "at home" in the cold!

    The cooler the air temp the more oxygen available so you get more out of your fuel,BOTH in performance and economy.
    A bigger intercooler helps replicate the cool conditions.
