Huh?156 viewsPhoto that informs drivers that there are speed limits (50km/h) in built-up areas of Queensland. Sign was about the size of the car and traffic on this road was minimal. Wondered if the powers that be had only one size sign and whether there was a procedure that stated that the sign must be placed so that you couldn't miss seeing it as you entered this part of Queensland.05 May 2006

Close up...401 viewsSorry, this is blurry ! Oops...

This is a close up of the adapter itself... There is a 3,5mm input for the connection to the iPod. There is also a volume button. I don\'t use this because of interference between my quite old iPod and that system. But it does charge the iPod through the dock adapter.

Set up in a cup holder...511 viewsRemember that my car is a LHD... There is a small suction cap to prevent the iPod from coming away to easily but it sildes "up" quite easily when you want to remove it... The Car charging adapter goes right behind in the provided outlet...04 May 2006

Fuel usage.jpg
MS Excel chart of fuel usage in TDV6 first 3 months of ownership200 viewsReason for distortion at beginning is not known - average so far is 11.55l/100k (25.09mpg) for the 6 199k travelled. The fuel usage 'bumps' correspond with the city driving although they did mirror the cost for a while! A copy of the spreadsheet (105kb) that shows MPG and l/100k (but not miles) is available for the asking - just PM me.03 May 2006
