[QUOTE="Tofufi, post: 38166, member: 38"] It is a lot more fun keeping the revs up... but I sometimes feel a bit mean. My van is surprisingly sprightly in 1st and 2nd gear when you put your foot down ;) I daren't work out my fuel economy now, let alone with revving it that hard too often ;) I have managed to get my beetle down to 18MPG around town from the usual 28-30 by putting my foot down a bit too often :lol: [/QUOTE]
