cracking mpg is available on these things, I've just landed back from Brum to S Cheshire, got caught up in bits of traffic as you'd expect and kept to 60-65mph wafting when it opened up and returned a car value of 44mpg. My brim to brim and real distance calcs shows about 2mpg on the optimistic side.

Yep, SDV8. Not unusual either, it's not surprising for me to see 40-44 omn the dash readout when I go from Cheshire to the south coast and back. First time FFRR owner |

Clogged intake, pull the throttle body off to see how much soot build up is in the intake system. |

Ok. On my last long drive 534 km (331 miles) at an average speed of 112 km/h (70 mph): The app reported 9.6 l/100KM (30 mpg). I checked when I filled up and the number was close enough.

2017 SDV8 in same location as you (Hi!) - I don't think I have ever seen 36mpg, unless down hill with a storm wind behind me!
