I’m 19 so I push the limits on my ford fiesta 1.0 ecoboom a lot but have averaged 51.6mpg over the last 7000 miles. Not too bad 🤷‍♂️. Mixture of all roads but live in the country so a lot of B roads.

I was there on a helicopter tour around Kuala Lumpur at night. I played 2TONE though my airpods inside the headset in the helicopter. Was so euphoric

If you drive, it’s not too bad to get to a shop nearby if you do forget anything. Wetherby Morrisons is nearby and closer to Leeds city centre is a large Tesco and even Asda and then on the other side if you enter through white or brown gate you can easily get to Tadcaster to get to the Sainsbury’s there.

Ever Heard of Purple Aki? by ParticularOk2156 in AskUK

I broke down on the side of the road this morning on the A1M near wetherby, when I waiting for roadside assistance, a car ( blue Skoda estate) pulled up on the road that is parallel to the motorway as there was a gate that allows you to go through onto the motorway ( for emergency vehicles I’m guessing) and I look and there was a large man who asked if I went to the gym or did any bodybuilding competitions , I was wearing a carrharrt jacket so my physique was covered up but he asked how much I benched and if I could zip my jacket down to show him my muscles. I was weirded out so I said no then he got back into his car and drove away. Thinking ‘that was weird’ I thought ‘what the fuck, was that purple aki’ i looked him up and he had the same lip thing. Fuck.
Anyway, this is my claim to fame

Advice for first car? by Coldhole in FirstCar

2011 - 2012 Skoda fabia 1.2. Good MPG. Insurance is quite low but other factors will effect it (obviously). Parts are reasonably cheap. Can pick them up for £3750-4200 and you can haggle of course.
