Think I'll cry... If I wasn't about to start a 100 mile a day commute to HP/Fujitsu I'd buy one!

Having said that I could well be getting the train :thumbsup:

300 miles in your Leon is about 30 mpg, i only know that as my Golf has the same fuel tank.

You should comfortably get 30mpg anyway, Revo should if anything make it better on fuel anyway..... can't imagine why it would ever do low 20's?

It's due a service and is lumpy on start at the moment, so I'll get my garage - JKM to have a look into it.

It is drinking fuel, I know that

I'll look at that, hopefully not too expensive.

Mk1 Leon? Onvi yellow? If so then only option is a respray, as the paint has faded under the clear coat, polishing it will be like trying to clean a window when the dirt is on the other side!

It's annoying, I had the same colour on an ibiza

Joy, yup that's the colour...

Oh well time to show it no love and just run it into the ground. Days like this I like my car and then absolutley hate it.

I think that's seats in general! I actually put my last one up for sale for a week cos I got annoyed with it!
