Did 3000km roadtrip from Helsinki to Lofooten Islands. No technicalities, expect one time wife left light on, and when boosting battery some fuses blow. Othervise xm worked like a charm. Average consumption 8.1 Litres. V6 3.0litres. Really good for long trips.

Sounds good, taking advantage of those very long daylight hours...only 20 Hrs 38 minutes today... 8-)
Did you see any Northern lights while there, or are they such a common occurrence that they are not worth mentioning?

Regarding the fuses blowing, was the jump pack connected the correct way round: positive to positive, negative to negative.

I make 8.1L/100km = 34.8 mpg (imp), which I think is very good and shows how frugal an Xm can be, even a V6, if driven sensibly.
