My 3.0 M Sport and wife just back from 600 miles around France and the car was fantastic.
37.1 Mpg journey average ,no motorways in France only this end 90 each way of the journey . Roof down or up rain and shine it was really good. For a longer trip in July we need to sort out how to maximize the luggage space but that aside a good test trip for us .
The latest questions , I think the rear brakes are making a noise , I will have a look at the weekend I suspect the handbrake shoes are just rubbing or there is corrosion in there . Does not change if I touch the foot-brake goes away after 30mph or is drowned out . I can here a hissing noise from rear wheels at 20mph especially if in a town where the building reflect the noise back .
It does not appear that there is a Haynes manual for the car , there seem to be some pdf downloads on e bay . What do people go for .
