On the subject of mpg, I've come across a thread (to which you have contributed), in which the mpg on the EVIC is measured in US gallons (possibly depending on date of manufacture). My EVIC gives me a choice of US or litres, and I was wondering if the choice on UK models should read IMP (ie. Imperial) or litres. My owner's manual still hasn't arrived (surprise, surprise!), so I can't look it up. Any insight much appreciated...best. John W

Hi John
The evic does only talk to you in US or litres, but if your evic computer is uptodate, selecting US will give you the figure in Imp gals rather that tiddly US ones.
To check the version of your evic, do the following
There are 7 pages of additional EVIC data you can access by pressing mode (music note) and compass on the steering wheel simultaneously for about 10 seconds. Use the leftmost Up/Dn arrows to scroll through the pages.
using the up/down arrow scroll through until you find the screen that tells you the CCN (evic) version.
If your version is 4.08 or later, you are on imp measurements, if its on 4.07 or earlier you are on American.
Hope I've helped.
