BTW, I definitely get better mpg on V Power - almost enough to compensate for the extra cost. And I think that I’m probably the OCD guru on ‘real’ mpg data (long term and not DIS). But I rarely (maybe never) drive at a ‘steady’ 70-ish; perhaps a fairly steady-ish 80 or so, with a few aberrations! But I didn’t buy my S8s for fuel economy - I bought them ‘cos I love them and enjoy every mile. And my excuse for the running costs - I don’t play golf!
