diesel consumption 300tdi/door handles

<< < (3/3)

its also worth checking the sedimenter located over the rear axle, these always seem to get over looked............going back to the fuel quality, i used to drive a well modded escort van and if i used supermarket petrol it would loose a lot of performance and not very good to the gallon, so there must be a difference

And that just wouldn't do!!  :twisted:

I keep all of my costs in a detailed spreadsheet (Geek :doh:) and it tells me the cost per mile. I was pleased to find that when the same calculations were applied to my Dad's Citroen C3 Box on wheels, purchased new four years ago and still depreciating rapidly means that it costs him the same per mile as my Disco.

It's a no brainer!

RRC, 21 years old and worth a bit less than we paid.

Micra, 5 years old, lost about £9,500 and it's done 26,500 miles. Holy cow, I see what you mean :doh:
