My love for it is quite pitiful.

Most bone question I keep getting asked: “is it economical”?

I have a weird sense of pride when i tell people i get late teens MPG driving sensibly. :)
Really I think has averaged about 25 from new and gets 30-32 on a run up and down the A1

The correct answer to that question is "oh yes, the V8 sounds awesome when I press the go pedal. 50 smiles per gallon" :D

Glad you're enjoying Mustang life...any thoughts on mods? Or have you not got that far yet? Careful...it's a slippery slope!

I find it really sad when you have a sports car and people ask first question, whats MPG? Its like they are playing Top Trumps and want to find something they can "win" on.....

I think you’re absolutely right.

Colleague yesterday: wow that can’t exactly be frugal.

Me: Hmmm. Let’s see. Does it look like it’s frugal? It doesn’t, does it? What about the engine - a five litre V8 - do you think it’s a frugal engine? No? Ok. It’s a Mustang, a sports car. Have you seen it’s got about 17 exhaust pipes? Here, have a listen while I switch it on. There. Does that sound like a frugal sort of car?

Colleague:

Well I drove from near Bridgend to Nottingham today to drop off my V8 for fixing on PS4s -2C 80 mph most of the way and when I arrived safely I was pleased to see that I’d used less than half a tank :like: came back in a Focus and that used half a tank so no complaints on fuel or tyres here :thumbsup: the only complaints I’ve got so far is white van man and tossers in BMWs :giggle:
