24-25 mpg average from my 330ci 6 speed. I can get 30+ mpg doing long haul highway cruising. Fortunately I don't drive more than 5-6000 miles a year anyway.

What kind of car do you have? If I could have I would have bought a 330d (or even that new BMW 123d which at 50+ mpg is amazing) but they only sell the gasoline models hereOriginally Posted by drakkie
pwned45-50 mpg or 1l:23km to 1l:25km without effort. 1l:18km when flooring it. Eat that you gas guzzlers
. On the bright side gasoline is more fun

I bet it doesn't. The best I could extract from a tank in the 118d was 41mpg US. And those were mainly careful motorway miles.

you need a T66 and a..a....inependent fuel management system dude. I admire your eagerness but seriously spend the money on a genuinely worthwhile car. If you do it I will seriously impressed!Hope 5-6 seconds after the summer

Our 520d does 35,7 mpg. (6,6 liter/100km) Driven pretty hard. Lots of city driving. Pretty good if you ask me. It can go down to 6 liters (39,2mpg) if you drive it very slowly though.

My best tank so far has been 5,8l/100km. Mostly motorway at about 140km/h. I guess you can go below that but you'd have to drive slowly.
The average seems to be about 6,5l/100km, 65% motorway, 35% city. And I usually like driving fast. Compared to the Mini it's amazing.

Pretty good.... but my gas costs about 1/3 compared to yourspwned

Do you have an instantaneous mileage calculator in the 1?
What is optimal cruising speed in it?
Furniture
Yup altough it's slightly optimstic. The numbers I gave were calculated with the km's I did with a full tank.
As for the optimal cruising speed I believe it's around 80km/h in 5th or 100km/h in 6th.

It's European law that cars need to have this system in the dashboard.
Friday I drove a new record too. Using the slipstream of some lorries and my cruise control, I managed to use 10,53 Liters of fuel on a drive of exactly 300 km's. This included 4-5 km of city driving and some sections (40-50 km) where I averaged 120 km/h. I stopped once and floored it to 100km/h when going back to the main road. I was amazed when at the pump. It's a very good 1l : 27,8 km or 65 miles per gallon ! I'll take pictures of the gas ticket next time.

My BMW has one but it makes me feel very sad when I am trying to have some fun. I am actually finding myself using it more and more now and it really is helpful to try to tailor your driving style to save fuel.

Cluck a duck man! And I thought that was a car to save fuel money? That's more or less what the 2.4v6 does! I aparently managed to get 65mpg in a 122mi drive in towns, carparks and on open roads during a day... Which is odd, seeing as Mazda only claim a combined of 44mpg or something
