  1. I beg to differ... Fuel for me 14-15L/100kms.. averaging 15,000ks a year.... = 2250L of petrol per year... at $1.40L = $3150 PER YEAR OF FUEL! thats not insignificant compared to servicing etc Add to that some stupid bogan in an XF ute rear ended me on Friday and drove off.. Got the F#$kers numberplate though.. went to cops and have made an insurance claim... OH the joy of cars! that pretty high....you must belt your car around all day everyday Or i may have sold my sportivo and drive a Skyline now :)

  8. The car is also getting alot hotter sitting in traffic.. so the aircon has to work much much harder.. I would have set it to the lowest temp (not auto) Example.. My bike.. on a 30 deg day sits on 85-89deg while cruising along.. as soon as i stop at traffic lights it heats up too 108deg before the thermo fan kicks in.. Makes your nuts nice and toasty Thats almost 20 degrees hotter within 15-30 seconds
  9. What happened Dave? I thought you just recently changed your gearbox oil and everything. Was wondering where the heck you went. Yer started making some funky noises... and crunching alot.. Tried to tell you on the radio.. but you either didnt have it on.. or music too loud :P.. Going to get it looked at today.. I think Bearings, 1st, 2nd and 4th gear syncros are going to need replacing.. Oh well life goes on
