Think you need the car looked at, mines about the same spec and i can easily get 250 miles to a tank, infact since it was mapped again on Saturday it seems even better on fuel [] []

baser999 Posted May 17, 2006 Posted May 17, 2006 Understand that work started in and around the Holmesdale Tunnel area of the M25 (j25) a couple of weeks ago - apparently 2 lanes are being kept open at all peak times but at night and/or times of reduced traffic flow there could well be lane closures, contraflows and speed restrictions [] Going at the time we are, hopefully it shouldn't affect our journey too much save for not being able to tank it through the tunnel making a lot of noise [][]
matthew_buckland Posted May 17, 2006 Posted May 17, 2006 I went round to Barnet on Saturday morning and was stuck in the road works for well over an hour,[] As usual no roadworks were taking place just lots of little men in bright jackets talking[:@], hopefully as its early it should be easier to get through.
SCOOBYTOO Posted May 18, 2006 Author Posted May 18, 2006 i think they were there when we did the rbmr, be carefull coz there are specs camera the lenght of the roadworks. 50mph...
