I'm running a 2013 SC and am up to 60,000 miles. I get 20mpg on a 70 mile per day round trip commute. Apart from that, 3 services, a set of brake pads, 2 sets of tyres that is about it (Various bits have broken but all covered by warranty).

If it wasn't for the £50k of depreciation it would have been pretty cheap motoring....

Sorry about the orientation of the pic. Best I have seen on the screen. Worst recently is 17mpg with average speed of 87mph. Seeing the other posts I'm going to do some full-to-full checks to see how inaccurate the trip computer is.

Maybe not in speed terms of an L405 (for the 35mpg) but I remember the days of barely getting 16mpg in a 4.6l P38 when on an economy run. The 17mpg figure was after cruising at 145-160 (indicated) at times between Stuttgart and Munich which is pretty good. 2019 D5 HSE Lux SDV6 Indus

Frank,

Was I allowed to go that slow? I thought flat out was obligatory.

The average was 80mph which included driving out of Stuttgart and into Munich so I think I was nearly German. 2019 D5 HSE Lux SDV6 Indus
