Long run without drama

Took the tourer to Mansfield at the weekend, its first long trip under my ownership. 400 miles round trip.
car went well and thank goodness for cruise control.
must check the front wheels for buckles as there is a slight wobble, the rears are not good.
Two other concerns, fuel economy and must check for broken rear springs as it seems to sit low at the back. They were ok a few weeks ago.

Low to mid 40's for the mpg according to the digital display. I'll get a better idea when I fill up with fuel.

Next big test it towing the caravan
