Not gonna lie, the first 1-2 hours of the trip was just the M602 from Salford to the M6, then the M6 to M53. First 18 miles took longer than the next 37 which would be only like 30-40 min. This was around the time they just started up the whole smart motorway stuff on the M602 and M6/Ring road. And yeah I almost died when i got in the car the next day and saw only 1/2 the tank left coming bk. Tho it was only 1.8 celica, it did roughly the same mileage as my 86 on 99ron, but a little bit less on standard 95. If your doing MCR to blackpool daily I hope someones helping with that fuel cost 😆 I was spending like £6k a year at my surveying job on fuel and they wouldn't even give me company car because I would 'add to many miles' >.> Happy with the GT86 at the moment on long trips. V power got me roughly 42mpg over a 500 mile trip, 99ron momentum is about 32-40 depending if its town or motorway driving. I wonder how a supercharger or turbo would change that tho o.o

The engine is 12.5:1 compression ratio and is very sensitive to knock. This is known. Putting ordinary fuel in a nice car and relying on the knock sensor is short-sighted and the car deserves better. Of course you can feel the difference!
