So it's been cold, which means I can't take all the blame: Last tank Mobil premium 23.0MPG.

I guess that's what happens when the tires are spinning all the time......... :facepalm:

While the car was up I took a look underneath to see what the lack of that driver-side underpanel might have permitted.
Nothing to report; the brake lines --painted gloss black-- show no signs of rock impact/damage, and no foreign objects were observed.
I think the car is more susceptible to crosswinds now.........

The longer it's off, the more opportunity for the winter crud to attach itself to things. And by the look of the few pics of your car, well....

Kind of exciting, in a dangerous sort of way.

hmm :? That's a similar mantra used by most off-roaders...Build it, Break it, Fix it, Repeat. Along with Get in, Buckle-up, Shut-up and Hold on.
