Smoke cloud? Is that from a d? I don't get that or is it something to do with engine sizes?
Yes because he has a diesel! That is a drawback when you floor it, unless you need a bond style getaway ...amazing torque low down though!

FYI I did the calculations for the past few weeks and I have been doing 18.6 mpg to 19.6mpg based on gas/petrol receipts (19.6 last night) had done 311miles and 33 miles "range" left.
My computer was telling me 19.9mpg before I reset it, 0.3mpg difference, I consider it quite accurate in this case.

I don't know how you put it there in english....

but i'll try to explain the best as i can...

As i drive long distances.... Reykjavik - Keflav?k that's 43km [26 miles]... almost straight road, with almost no elevations....

there i'm going as low as 3,9 l/100km [60mpg] and as high as 4,6 l/100km [51mpg]...

average is 4,2 l/100km [56mpg] calculated after topping up fuel in Reykjav?k, driving the 43km [26 miles] and then topping up again in Keflav?k...

Inside town, it has been as low as 7,8 [30] [ and highest is around 8,4 [28]....but... that's with my GF at the wheel... normal driving...

it's always around 9,4-10,1 [23-25] when i drive...

Dyno said 323hp... and the response is at a very good level.... only downfall is the smoke cloud that appears when you get on it...

but i find it a good revenge to put black smoke on some of those road raging assholes in traffic
