Has anyone else found themselve fixated by the variable display of miles per gallon and then found that they have been driving round the countryside at 50 mph???? Seem to have been developing a bad habit (but my last car did 500 miles per £27 fill up..... :cry: )

Also have any of the other female (or male :| ahh hemm) drivers found that when driving in heels / pointy type shoes, they can feel the steering when turning?

I have noticed that sometimes when wearing heels I can also feel the steering wheel, although this hapened on my 206 as well.

Ladyboy!!!! :evil:

I am definitely female, have been all my life and say's so on my birth certificate- how about you??

Fancy not knowing. Tsk, tsk :rolleyes:. Why would a man ask about shoes???
Just added the male bit as didn't want to be sexist; after all some of the more dodgy men in hair dresser cars (CC?) may wear pointy shoes??

Apologies..your name is non-gender specific....in fact, I'm sure I had Cotswolds once...aren't they like piles that you get from sitting on cold stone walls?
:lol:

Terribly sorry to hear that- I am too young to suffer from any such OAP aliments.

I DONT wear heels, but used to be able to feel the steering column turn.

Maybe my feet are just tooo big.

Yep my foot has met the steering column many a time, it's really uncomfortable, I tried sitting up more, and now it doesn't happen as much.

I'm a bloke and I don't wear high heels incase anyone cares.
