Howdy,
The wife and I decided to give the new car a bit of a run, we decided to go out to Roma, approx 500kms west of Brisbane (Queensland, Australia).
What a great drive, nice long straights with only the odd road-train to deal with, the Megane cruised nicely at 130kph with the odd 180kph stint (just to pass the trucks safely ) until the speed limiter in the passenger seat kicked in anyway...
I don't really recommend going to Roma for anything but the drive, it's a pretty small town of around 7000 people with about 10 pubs, not much to do but the roads were pretty good. (watch out for the Kangaroos though, I wouldn't do the drive at night, that would ruin the trip very quickly.
Anyway, after 1100kms, in 2 days averaging 7.3l/100kms (no I can't convert that to mpg for you, I only think in metric ) I remain VERY impressed with our new french friend.
Cheers,
Carey
(YAY!! my springs arrive in 4 days!!!!)
