Just out of curiosity I've been using the free 'Road Trip LE' smartphone app to keep track of MPG and found it quite entertaining. For a couple of pounds it can be upgraded to the full version which has a lot more information fields to keep track of servicing, insurance renewal and details of trips.

Before I upgrade was just wondering what apps is anyone else using and which is the best? 2008 MY Java Black TDV8 HSE

I think I'd rather not know how much my RRS 'REALLY' costs me ......so the less 'costs' I can track the better.
Also, if it ever fell into the wrong hands (read SWMBO) it would only serve as ammunition

So, sorry, in answer to your question, no i don't know any Apps  ON THE WAY: BMW F21 M140i
MERCEDES GL350 - Metallic Navy Blue w/Grey interior

GOING: BMW F31 335D MSport+ xDrive Touring
GONE: Land Rover Discovery 4 HSE - Stornaway Grey w/Black Interior (wish we'd kept it )
GONE: BMW F10 520D MSport - Carbon Black
GONE:MY12 RRS SDV6 HSE Sumatra/Ivory/Grand Black Privacy glass

App called dynolicious, put various bits of info in to it and give a reasonably accurate bhp reading. Use it for gearing rally car but otherwise it really is a willy waving pub talk app. It's about 10% over egged, but if you know that it's no issue. 2x TDV6. SE and HSE. Both returned to sender with issues👀
TDV8 Sport HSE...... Gone. Loved it but it didn't love me!!
Now rolling in MY10 Fullfat TDV8 Vogue. Slammed it to go round corners🙈
Cruising daily #56 mph in a Volvo V8. 😱
Lots of other toys in the cupboard...😜

For me it would have to be Autotrader, its like porn to a petrol head

Not much use really, but I have spent many an hour looking at cars I cant afford

Actually there was another app I downloaded.............called Find My Car

Now before you all start taking the there was a bloody good reason, whilst running extremely late for a flight I dumped the car in the multi storey and proceded to run as fast as possible with 2 kids in tow and god knows how many suitcases to the terminal paying absolutely no attention to where I had actually parked the car. Only to return 2 weeks later in the middle of the night to realise this, so with 2 kids (now screaming) and all the suitcases I had to trawl up and down the bloody car park on various floors until I found it

Needless to say Mrs Sparky was not impressed

Thankfully Ive never needed to use the app, but its nice to know its there.......just in case

Like the sound (and the look) of most suggestions. Found two apps called 'Gas Buddy' and 'Parkopedia' but don't think would feel comfortable with either of those two icons on my homescreen  2008 MY Java Black TDV8 HSE
