Just want a fast reliable daily with running cost that won't make me cry. :) The reason for me wanting 210 is to keep the car reliable.

Generally if you remap a car doing the same speeds ut will return more mpg than standard as you are using less throttle for he same power. Trouble is you are rarely doing the same speeds! ;-)

There's so many wealthy Nigerians who, for some reason, can't get their money out of their country without our help? Such a shame :-(
