Wife not happy

Do you have actual figures for the XT to compare against? If those figures you listed before are claimed by each company then theoretically the R36 is more efficient... Just point at that... alot.

...but lets not forget it sounds awesome at WOT... which doesn't help with consumption....

It's claimed the XT averages 12.4 combined, so it is definitely under. But as you say, it definitely purrs when you give it a little shtick

Btw, what's WOT?

Congrats!
but it is a MY09 model though

Thanks! Nope, MY10.5 apparently. It's the last of the 2010's they produced with the updated internal bits.

(Pretty sure that's just the updated interface thing, and updated climate controls bits n bobs?)

WOT = wide open throttle

Oh sorry, thought it's the VWR365.

Yeh right. Never heard that one before. Couldn't resist flooring it a couple of times when I test drove it. Was amazed at how effortlessly the thing hammered hehe

Can't wait to take it out on the weekend. Most likely to some sort of family picnic though, but hopefully find somewhere windy to get to

Something tells me you're pulling my leg?
