As much as those figures pain me, I still have to have me a supercharged. I've been to therapy to try and talk me out of it, but to no avail. I want me a supercharged I really do. |

The newer you can afford to get, the better the mpg. Came as quite a surprise to me how much bettter the 5.0 was over the 4.2 and the SVAD is better again. Just got a computer indicated 26.x over last w/e trip to North Wales. I had a car full so not going mad, but wasn't dawdling either, fastish cruise on motorways and picked up her skirts a few times to clear traffic on A/B roads. Around 700 miles all in so quite long runs. Having said that...I've always argued that you're getting the wrong car if you go for a fatty but are worried about fuel costs. Mike - MPx

I average 400 miles to a take in my p575 which works out about 22 average. A high speed motorway journey is up to 26 ish. Very impressive tbh 1995 4.6 v8, green/tan (long gone)
