You lot are special ;)

None of mine have any issues on motorways, although Kar did get thirsty if you cruised over 85 without making sure it was running sweet first.

65 on the motoway ffs :P

Funny thing is I don't often cruise at anything really over 80 - which is strange because it still feels nice at 100. I used to drive my Favorits quicker on the motorway. Which both hated doing 70 - they liked 85-90 mostly.

Thanks :P

I doubt my Grandad ever took it on the motorway, but if he did it'd be not for very far. While we've had it, I took it on the motorway before doing pass plus (my first drive on a motorway), but that was basically up to the fisrt junction and back, and then the Taunton meet, but other than that, not sure it's been on the motorway as we use my dads 850 for that.

I need another 300 that's in a 'normal' condition so I don't have to worry about it as much :P
