Anyhow back to your first post stan ….. what makes you think you are going to do 30mph or 50mph if you get an SC…..

TBH here is the rub if you are asking about MPG on an SC then it really cant be for you can it?!? FFRR MY06 facelift With TDV8 Alloys Zeros/ATR's

^^^ CORRECT ^^^

What i am surprised at is how the 5.0 SC's have kept a hold of there prices , just been looking at them (and annoying myself) on AT

i'm a tight old git so by law i have to ask about mpg..

mick, you have to pass 30mph to get to 50mph to get to etc etc etc.....  ... - .- -.

Yeah but i thought you meant plodding along at a steady 30mph …..

it would be 30mph around the m25..  ... - .- -.

That would mean about 10mpg then Stan!  Got - 2017 SDV8 Autobiography in Loire Blue

Since acquiring Mick's old SC 9 months ago I have covered 20,000 miles in it, with a long term average of 18.5mpg and the current tank is reading 19.4mpg.

I dont pay much attention to the mpg's at different speeds but my daily commute consists of 10 miles on country lanes at max speed of 40mph then onto the A1 for about 15 miles at 80mph and then a further 15 miles on A roads stuck behind lorries at about 50mph, and then back again in the evening.

The best I've manged on a tank was 380 miles.

ta for the input NKSC

@alan, surely not as low as that , lower speed = higher mpg.........[i know, dont call you shirley ] ... - .- -.

My S/C averaged about 16mpg. My 4.4TDV8 is around 26mpg.

However, it isn't the cost (I too did about 7,000m pa), it's the time filling it up. 300m is about the effective range in a S/C vs 450m in a TDV8. So you'll fill up at least 8x more a year. It's actually quite noticeable.

i suppose i need to get off my fat ass and drive one and make a qualified decision..... ... - .- -.

Mong if you think thats bad i used to have a range of upto 175 on LPG in my old coupe. That just did Warrington to Lincoln driving as it should be driven... fill up there for about £9 or something and same back

That was a lot of time stood in the cold! FFRR MY06 facelift With TDV8 Alloys Zeros/ATR's

My 3.9 v8 Defender had a 10 gallon underseat tank, 120 miles (if I was lucky) between fill ups...
Almost firstname terms with filling station!!
