    Mine is a daily.. As much as I would like a weekend bus, it does allow early detection of issues and fix time before play time..
    I get around 600km off the main tank. It used to get about 750 off the main tank a few months ago. I service it regularly and driving style hasn't changed.

    Guessing ac gets used little more over summer.
    That's 6.6k/L, 15.5L/100 which imo is pretty good around town..

    We just got two new ones at work mega with the 3.2 in them , must say they have come a long way compared to the old model .
    The price of excellence is dicipline , the cost of mediocrity is dissapointment .
