Top Trumps!!

[Loofer]

Don't know if we've already done anything like this.... just a bit of fun and good to compare stats

Basically, state your car details and then
1)Highest average MPG (either OBC or own prudent calculations)
2)Highest number of miles done to full tank (also state tank capacity in litres)
3)Current mileage
4)Most costly service/repair (very brief details of repair if you want)

feel free to add any other intresting but comparable details if you wish..

I'll go first

As from this point forward the above two stats should be included. I was a bit dubious about adding top speed as we don't want to be condoning or celebrating exceeding the Speed Limit.

Your economy stats are very impressive, especially since you have had alot of perfromance mods to your car.

Mk4 Golf GT TDi 130

1. 64.2MPG OBC over an 11 mile trip
2. 520 miles but gauge was just above red
3. 90k
4. £700 on a Passat 1.8T - the symtom was a horrible metallic knocking noise emanating from the engine bay, after changing cambelt, pulleys and the veeeery expensive chain tensioner at the back of the engine it was found that the root of the problem was a failed oil pump, also suffered exactly the same symptoms at a later date with an A6 1.8T although it was a cheaper repair due to previous lessons learned. Who says you can't put a price on experience
5. 130 BHP
6. Torque? Dunno but I'm sure there are many on here that do
