Message: <blockquote data-quote="Mun" data-source="post: 409159" data-attributes="member: 17916">Had a meeting in Ipoh last week. Had ample time to reach there so i decided to perform an "economy" drive to see how good the consumption.Tank all full and reset the consumption on the OBC just before Duta Tol.10 minutes into the hiway, the reading showing 7.9 l/100km.  I was tailing a W124 merc at around 140kmh at the most.Suddenly there was a Hyundai Matrix coming up fast on the rear view mirror and getting too close to my tail. Then i notice a mazda 6 is the one putting the pressure.Mazda 6, 2.5 v6 - this could be interesting I thought.  But the mazda has little patience, so he overtook on the left middle lane. Aaaah... S'pore number plate...But the mazda didn't get very far and stucked behind some car ahead.Then the traffic started to clear up and I was right behind him, but not too close to intimidate him.And there was no v6 badge!!!  Must be a 2.0cc.  :-(So i shifted from D to DS. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /> After he overtook a few cars and notice the gap has not extended, the mazda shifted to the left, incidentally a fast corner is fast approaching. Kept my speed (170 think) as he lifted his throttle.The next straight I was stuck behind some car doing 130+ and the mazda got his chance to tailgate closely. This mazda is very ambitious...what is he trying to do?The car in front then steered to the left lane and the road was clear.And the answer from the Mazda was very, very bad! As if like no answer at all.I expected slightly better.By this time, my economy drive was already out of the window and by the time i reached Ipoh, the tank was half full. Economy drive is just difficult....</blockquote>
