When you say milage you mean the amount of gas the car needs ?
Mine does 10 litres per 100 kilometres, which is about 2.2 imp.gallons per 62.14 miles. And it's called "verbruik" in flemish and "consommation" in french and each different language in Europe has probably its own word for it ? So my car has a "verbruik van 10 liter per 100 kilometer".

Yeah, we ask wots the milage. Wots the kilomtereage sounds odd

No, we ask "wat is het verbruik?", for us it sounds the same as milage to you. And the germans call it "verbrauch", the others southerns, northerns and eastern people I don't know. Southerns are spanish, italians, portuguese, greeks etc.. northerns scandinavians and easterns the ex eastblock countries.

Hi Freelaner, MHM and others,
...But now to keep going on with metrics, now that you lot have taken the first step in mm, when will it be kilometers (i/o miles), liters (i/o gallons), are (i/o acre), euro (i/o pounds), kilo (i/o pounds and stones etc..), plus all the rest I didn't think of.

and risk someday start driving on the right side of the road, that is of course on the Right, sometime in a distant future...

Crazy lol
Well yes Tigers are not native however there are a few in Game Parks and one such park happens to be very close to my home. However Cheeters and Lions are as well as Leopards! As far as smaller cats go we have Lynx and the African wild cat. As far as Antilop go we have Hartebeest, Impala, Springbok, Duiker, Eland and Kudu. We have Elephant and Rhino and Giraffe. All close to were I live its really cool my little Freelander has been on many a Safari :crazy_driver: Lots of single track dirt roads lots of washaways rocks and so on. Yes she is not as cappable as my previous 4x4 ( Toyota Hilux doublecab 4x4 with solid front axil oldman emu suspention Cooper STT tyres) but she is alot more comfortable and the Toy was overkill for my needs.

Contrary to the side where to drive we do apply the priority from right rule as you do overthere, it makes much more sense when driving on the left hand side of the road like in the uk, that gives you half the width of the road extra time/room/sight when people come from the right. When we come at a crossing those coming from the right sit directly onto us. If you see what I mean?
