Best I can expect is about 19mpg if I'm lucky. That's in the awesome greater Manchester town traffic with an average overall speed of 17mph My Previous RR's!

Only an American could call a liquid "Gas" Erm, my 3.6 averaged about 27 over the time I owned it which included all types of driving including towing a caravan sometimes. |

Been to Ludlow and back today and tripped gauge so had a fresh start and it clocked 29 on the way there ( 69 miles) but only 24 on the way back and they both seemed similar journeys in terms of time, speed and tragic?? |

On a long run using motorways and a steady 70-75 mph, I reckon on a range of 500 miles. A recent ski trip to the Portes de Soleil, round trip c 1300 miles required 2.5 tanks of diesel (v power and total excelium), with a tank fill of 85 litres in each case. Still using what's left now. That was a car with 3 adults and two teens plus kit. Proper economical!! |
