Welcome :D

Guess u call u RX 'egg' - me call me RX 'X' - we're affectionate that way :p

Auto consumption depends largely on how u drive u RX/egg - best is 400+km on full tank and worst is 200km (me :o )

Remember to attend the meet so u get poisoned :p Don't worry - poison feels GREAT! :D

My is 6MT.

Hope that the following info will help

Spore driving 1 liter = 6.5 km

Spore to KL (150-180km/h) 1 liter = 7.5 km

The car's tank is 60 Liters so just calculate back wards and u will know how many Km per tank of fuel.

Since u did very little on Highways that means that your car consume much less petrol than my?

I can only get 6.5 KM when driving in Spore... I wonder does the actual mileage of the car contribute petrol Consumption ??

My car is only 5000km after 5 mths ++. cos seldom drive. Does it means that I need to drive more so as to running in the Engine in order to obtain a high mileage?

BTW, what should i check for when collecting my Black-Egg.....

Understand that AT4 speed come with the original 16" rim...not so nice in design. Where can I get the original rim as seen in the brochures? 17" or 18" is fine.

Saw the "add-on" kits from MM.... will they sell to those who purchase from PI?

Check that the recall issue has been addressed already.

U should look for after market rims & kit - get a different look! But if u do wanna get the MS kit, it is not an add-on as it is a replacement. But NICE! Especially its *** :D

Heard that MM won't sell to PI RXs, but u could try to contact our friendly RX666 (cool motorbike avatar).

The above should EGG u on... for now :p

My car is being delayed due to the recall problem. supposedly should be able to get the car last week between 11 - 13 Aug but LTA requires my PI to repair the recall problem before they allow them to register.

Late but at least its being done before i collect the car.
