Now back in a very wet UK, got home at 4.30pm. Raining cats and dogs, so no change from when we left the UK 3 weeks ago.
All in the 8 has covered 2200 miles since leaving the UK, I'll add up the value spent on fuel and calculate the MPG for the whole trip.

Well done!
I love to see a 8 make it through a long journey with no problems. They are ideal long-distance cruisers. I saw two in France. |

I did nearly that much going to Scotland for a week!
Daren't add up the petrol bills though, no Gibraltar cheap stuff up in Sutherland - 154p/litre if you're lucky! ![]()
