Waiting to come off the ferry in Portsmouth after 1800 miles driven in Spain over 3 weeks. Car performed faultlessly and averaged 39.8 mpg, fuel prices in Spain similar to UK, (pump prices are discounted by Euro 0.25/ltr) so not too painful. Now will need a wash and vacuum!

Its crazy how well these cars eat up the mileage thrown at them.

And how comfortable you are whilst its doing it. 

We covered a total of 6,401 miles on trips abroad this summer; 2,890 to Croatia in June and 3,511 to Lithuania in August over a total period of 5 weeks 2 days.  It's great to cover those mileages and to be able to get out without feeling stiff, especially as an OAP of 70!  We went through 12 countries on our travels as we didn't take direct routes.  For instance, when we returned from Croatia, we went across northern Italy, along the French Rivera, through Monaco and then up through France.  We averaged 56.7mpg and 55.4 respectively and tried to fill up with as much  fuel as possible in Luxembourg, Slovenia and Poland, where the prices are lower than the UK.

Nice trip ! 👍
