miles per gallon
Today i went for a drive to the land that time forgot (scotland) and did just over 360 miles. i got an average of 28.1 mpg. That was a few miles round town, then about 30 miles of country roads then the rest motorway. I think thats pretty good for an S8. Although the other day i got an average of just over 30 mpg driving like a judge going to sheffield. does everybody else get about the same ?
Also fuel costs. i thought they were supposed to be going down or staying the same ? wednesday i paid £135.9 per litre and today i had to pay £139.9 from the same garage. whats going on ? |
That is some drive. Never seen 28 as an average on any S8. Perhaps your Revo map has improved things? Not sure about the price, I don't even look anymore.
|
i am sure that i do get better fuel consumption now after the remap and she runs a lot better +++
|
never seen better than 20mpg and round town it's nearer 14 :-( did manage to nudge the tank average up to 17 by doing a few miles cross country.....
I don't drive like a loon either, as usually got my 11 month old in the car! |
Managed 29-30 on a run upto the lake district last year, sitting on the motorway at a steady 70 all day long.
Get about 21-22 on my daily a road commute. |
I've been getting 21 ish, thats with a 60 mile round trip when I'm in the office.
I could get better but I'm still enjoying the rate that the car get upto speed. |
my computer is pretty much stuck at 14.5 at the moment with lots of very short local journeys.
Get 22ish on long runs Zip (2002 S8 as well) |
Im getting 22-26 on my 3.7 FL, mostly local and short motorway runs, be likely to be 3 or 4 mph better on a long run
|
Being mildly anal and running a spreadsheet since I acquired the 8 I have managed 30.5 mpg average (financially). LPG Rulezzzzzzz...:D++++++

V-power and foot to the floor all the way for me ;)
