I think Doc wants D3 info specifically..... Dont think D2 stats will help much :Confused:

Good point - I just re-read and realised he prob wanted D3 info lol

Back to the drawing board.....

The D3 S8 is soooo tempting, I don't think I'll go more then a year and a half/two years before I end up buying one. I'm serious.

I'm more fancying one than a W12 now given the cost of cats...

But the W12 does still do something for me... not sure if it's the 12 cylinders or the almost magical sense of power delivery.

Ah yes indeed. Thought it was a D3 S8.

Anyone else?

Aiming to make my mind up today. It's the right spec one for me. Just can't decide on the fuel.

It's not about the money, it's being sensible when I already have 4 toy cars, 2 with V8's in..... Sensible I consider to be around £100 to 300 miles.

i think ud be lucky to get those figures. would still be worth it. d3 S8 = sexy

i think more like 250....if its more motorway then 300 might be possible

Would a D3 S8 be that much worse than a D3 A8? motorway cruising at 85ish, I get 500 miles from a tank. Usually average about 360 to a tank with a decent amount of town travel.

A tank full of V is about £110. 300+ miles is easily achieved, and so is less. But you'd have to be seriously bonkers to get it down to 240 or 250

PM you email and I'll send over my spreadsheet with every fill up, litres, cost, miles etc

Not bonkers just need a slightly heavy right foot.
