Had a minor issue where I couldn't put any gas in it but all fixed under warranty with no issue...
The price going up does suck but its still 50+cents a litre cheaper!
Looking forward to doing a trip to Adelaide and then onto Yorktown in march and seeing what it returns on the open road!

Gas tank is 80 litres - 65 usable.
First tank of gas I got 23L /100... With a very heavy right foot! As a comparison, My first tank of petrol I got 21l/100...
Only on my 2nd tank of gas now and again have been giving it a hiding... Next fill I'll drive a bit more sensibly and see what it returns.
I seriously think I need to at least put a cat back on which should make a big difference to my economy - at the moment I'm flooring it at every opportunity as its the only way o hear any sort of rumble!!!

As much as I hate to say it mate I'm hoping that will be the case....
Thankfully I insured it for what it's worth not what I paid and then up'd it again when I did the conversion.... I know I won't be able to find another privately owned spotless one with less than 10k on the clock at the price I paid but there seems to be a few ex Holden execs with sub 15k....
It goes in on Monday to shop that I've worked with in the past so well see what they say when they get a good look at it...
