Drive fast and blow the leaves off! Dear me... you actually clean and polish your car or something?

ps Phil, We have a family Focus 2.0 TDCi 135hp Motability car, 2,000 miles now, but only getting 39mpg. This seems low, especially with relatively gentle driving, and two Edinburgh trips, I would have expected at least 45.
Do you know what you are getting?
