    IN! I won't disappoint this time around. New mileage log to follow. ....I guess that's the point of checking in though... count this a wasted post in that case, haha.

    I would suggest editing the first post to tell people how to enter the Challenge. Not everyone has done multiples of these, after all...

    I'm in! Hopefully with better results now that the tires are breaking in and I am focused a bit better!

    I'm not sure about E10, I've seen "E10" at all of times when I refilled, I'll verify if it is E10 or not.

    From em.com log, my 3 months mpg average is just over yours (65.8 vs 65.54mpg). My additional challenge will be to keep it as is ;) I may have to "basjoos" my megane more, more, more...

    KD : The rules are explained in previous Challenge threads : http://www.cleanmpg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=35135
