I would try and make some reference to if the figures were on the dash or calculated as the can vary wildly. 25.9 indicated was actually 23.5 at the pumps. The diesels are worse for this especially when remapped or with tuning boxes. Normally makes 20% optimistic. Also driving like a saint for my entry? I'd say driving normally to the speed limit! 2005 E60 M5

I hadn’t appreciated it was as much as 20% inaccuracy.

Also Thankyou to everyone who has provided a number, it’s an interesting array of economy in there, as long as you take it with a degree of error on dash/actual, driving style, road type and fuel variants. |

Won't get into that argument again but I run mine on 95 as that's what it recommends in the manual...

ah, thanks yes that would make sense, of course there'd be more to it than just increased capacity.
