I trecked up to Preston and back on the M6 today in the torrential rain (3 hours each way). SM was very well behaved (except for a very anoying wiper squeak every wipe) and managed quite a respectable 43MPG for just over 1000 miles on the engine. Apart from the wiper squeek my only other complaint was that the sat nav didnt recognise the meeting address or semi postcode so had to resort to the TomTom for the last 5 miles.

Anyway, I was on the look out for other Yeti's and mid afternoon I saw one Blue SM heading north around Stafford.

If it was you - hello!
