I try to keep within the speed limits more now. I kind of assume that if a car like this gets spotted going at speed, it will be stopped.

I am less heavy on the gas than I was. With my previous cars, to get any kind of decent acceleration involved a heavy foot. Useful when getting out of the way of BMWs…

When I first got the Crossfire, I thought that it was getting through fuel really badly. I realised that (a) the car is much quieter and I am not supposed to hear the engine all the time and (b) I don’t need to stomp on it to get it out of sticky situations with BMWs. As a result, my milage has improved dramatically, and with care I can get the best part of 450 miles out of a tank

What I have found is that the attitudes of other drivers seems to be different. I my old Skoda, it would take me about an hour to get to my parents. In the Crossfire, the time travelled can be considerably less. I am not driving any faster. I am driving at the same speeds, BUT it seems that other cars move out of the way more, so I can drive at the speeds I want to for longer, thus bringing the journey time down.
