MPG hows yours?
« on: 30 October 2008, 13:33:12 »
hi guys,as i aint got a manual with the car was wondering what level of fuel consumption you are getting.
On run back from London was between 29-30mpg and around town its averaging at 13-15mpg.just wondering how this compares to others.Cheers :)BTW 3.0V6 autobox :y

Your mpg on the  run from London isn't too bad. Your around town figures should be better though, mine are around 20/21 mpg

Agreed, your round town is a bit low unless you use a lot of right foot  ;D
I average 21 for 6 miles to work and 6 miles home again, fastest road is a 40mph limit.
Do very few long runs so don'y no about your other figures.

I suppose your around town figures depend on how long you sit still in traffic for but I would say it is a bit on the low side
