  1. Not really bothered about the MPG on my car as it's not the reason i bought it but today i was quite amazed at the mileage i got Went down to Cardiff to pick some tyres up and i decided i'll do no more that 70mph, a bit boring i know but i thought i'd stick with it and i managed to get 31.41mpg which i thought was good On the trip back i decided to speed up a bit and was averaging around 80-85mph and i got 33.51mpg So why did i get better mileage when i was going faster

  10. Taken from the last Colin McRae Gathering email RECORD BREAKERS We’ve seen comments on various Internet Forums along the lines of “Why aren’t we breaking any world records at this event?” One reply we saw stated “I think you'll find that something will no doubt have been planned and organised already” That guy didn’t know it when he posted, but he was spot on. We WILL be breaking two world records as part of our tribute to Colin. An amazing amount of work has gone on behind the scenes to sort this out and to have a Guinness World Records adjudicator on site on the day. We’ve not been able to publicise things until it was all confirmed and sorted out with the Guinness people, but that is now all sorted, and we are absolutely delighted to announce that we will not only break, but SMASH two world records: 1) Most cars of a single marque in convoy – The current record is held by the FIAT 500 Club with 500 Cars in convoy. We will have 1100-plus cars in convoy and will more than double the current record, 2) Most cars forming a Mosaic/Picture. - This record was set in July by Volkswagen with 265 taking part. We will obliterate that with over 1000 cars taking part in our tribute. It’s cost us £2000 to have Guinness World Record people on-site on the day to verify our smashing of these records, but we thought that a good investment to provide a permanent record just how highly Colin McRae is regarded. If any business or individual wishes to donate to help us cover that cost then we’d love to hear from you!
