Long distance driving - Aygo 2006

Recommended Posts

I started a new job in October which means I have a long drive to work about 50 miles each way. About 100 miles per day. 

I have two questions:

  1. Any good tips for efficient driving? My Aygo doesn't have rev counter - is there an optimal efficient speed for motorway driving for this car?
  2. Has anyone replaced their drivers seat in order to add more comfort?

Thanks 

PS before anyone suggest working from home - I don't like WFH and I can't in my job at the moment.

The seats from a Mk2 Aygo are more comfortable and are a direct replacement.

Is that the 2016 Aygo?

Cool. 

This is the state of my drivers seat here: 

Its quite expensive to buy a new seat isn't it?

Don't buy new, go to a used specialist like Small Cars R Us

I found this one for £79.99 excl shipping.

Is that a reasonable price range? 

I'll drop Small Cars R Us an email to see if they can ship to Northern Ireland.

Doesn't look too bad, you might want to consider changing all the seats so they still match - several sets on eBay (other auction sites are available) at the moment.

P.S. Don't forget that the Aygo Mk2, Citroen C1 Mk2 and Peugeot 108 seats will all fit.
