i never go above 75-80 on the motorway.
That's what they all say too.  your spot on there. for a guy with a type r he sat at 75 - 80 all the way up and back. That's probably because of the ridiculously bad fuel consumption! Done 330 miles today, still have 10 litres of fuel left  |

I haven't put petrol in the car for ages so it sounds like I am in for a shock! I was advised to put the fancy petrol in my car, does it make any difference at all?

Optimax gives slighty better ecomany, better response, smoother running and cleans the injectors.
I swear by it.

Why is my car's steering so fucked since it's MOT was done? It's super light, I'm having to oversteer like fuck and the back slides out and wobbles a bit whenever I brake and turn a corner.

It's been since the MOT, got two new rear tyres but I can't understand how that'd fuck up the steering (then again I don't know a thing about cars). Tracking seems fine but the alignment's been fucked for ages, but that's fixed after the MOT. No ice in the sunny south east. magic - it was me |
