You may not like the sound of it but in truth i am getting just over 14 mpg but that is all short journeys of about a mile at a time. On a run on the motorway i get about 20 mpg but i dont like to drive slow ;)

WOW thats umm well mmmm 14 mpg i see some one is smuggling lead off the church roof in ones shoes again Tut tut,
No i totally agree that you dont buy this kind of car for the fuel econ, even though there is a V12 thats on satins fuel by audi that makes no sense, why not a petrol V12, strange but who am i to critique

Petrol V12 wouldn't fit in the spaces it needs to fit in. And the V10/V12 diseasels were mince :)

But you don't buy these kind of motors to stress over the economy do you

No mate and we like to get to places. That was a healthy 80mph give or take coming from the M62 back up North. So very pleased with 23MPG.

What was the verdict on the 'cheap' W12?

Did anyone go see it or know anything about it?

Just curious...

Sort of answered my own question...rang up this morning and apparently I'm about the 70th caller on the car which was sold about a month ago to the first person who saw it!

According to the guy I spoke to they have tried to get the advert removed but it keeps returning to pad out the For Sale section of PH!

Aah well it was a nice thought while it lasted...:ROFL:
