LOL!

Well it didn't snow, but the -7 degrees put me off exploring the limits for
fear of testing the 5 star NCAP rating!
White knuckle ride home, and because of the traffic, used (according to the
gauge) a quarter of a tank of fuel in 28 miles! Looks like I'll be getting
friendly with the local petrol station attendant!

Totally forgot the camera!
Left it in Manchester and went to the Isle Of Wight for the Xmas holiday.

Good news is that I have realised that the fuel tank is smaller than the
GT's and that so far I'm averaging about 28-33 miles to the gallon...which
is not bad considering the novelty-factor-driving-style coupled with snow
and traffic jams! My 156 V6 would only manage 20ish MPG driven similarly and
the G is seriously quicker :-))
