6.000km yesterday. No pbl's - have done a trip from Ghent to Boxmeer (between Venlo and Nijmegen) in the Netherlands, and back, staying at about 100km/h in 5th and 6th gear - average consumption on this whole trip 5.9 l / 100km - including some traffic jam around Antwerp and Eindhoven.

Must say - customer in Boxmeer is not far away from highway - my house in Ghent is not far from highway, so almost no local traffic on this trip.

So it is possible, although needs strict discipline... - don't like to drive this way every day. But I wanted to test the mininum possible consumption. Here it is.
