HI,
Many thanks Keith for taking the trouble to reply adding this useful information.
As you know Keith it's hardly like a bowling green where Bron and I live so as you say this will impound on mpg figures. When I set off with a cold Aygo it only does about 200 yards before hitting Rowley Lane; if I turn left uphill then the Aygo goes up the first steepest part in second gear until it gets its breath which I know only too well how it feels; I've walked up the lane quite a few times and it's a brilliant workout if it doesn't kill me?
A 2L vehicle is much too big for us but I think the smaller petrol engine (105?) gives creditable performance; most Yeti's also appear to be sold in 2WD versions?
Kind regards, Col.
